Is Turkish Gvmt Gulfstream TC-CBK still present?
If so, any departure time known?

Weather over Germany not good enough yet, decision to move helicopters from Germany to Eindhoven today will be taken at 11:00

Thanks but no, 46-14 and 46-24 participated in the regular missions during this timeframe (ref report above).
It is about two Hornets that did not leave their boxes during the times mentioned.
