the new colours are foils, not real paintwork

Very nice report, Dick. Some of the aircraft were still flying fife years later, when I had the chance to be there.

[quote="BirdieBarty"]Hi Scramble members,

This week on Nörvenich there will be a lot of night flying activities.
They leaving between 17:30&18:00 HRS local time. I have seen some Typhoons take off yesterday night.[/quote]


If traffic with 3 aircraft is " a lot of", then you are right......

Also around 14:40LT a a/c was making a low approach with a callsign sounded like Tack31??. After the l/a he was going to Nörvenich. When it was a local Nörvenich EF-2000 than the callsign was i think Pack31?? Pilot has a Italian accent. Who knows more?? Cheers, Eric[/quote] Sometimes there are excha...

brilliant shots, Olli

TLG 31 announced that the EF will be nightflying Mo-Thu next week and the week thereafter. So no local flying in the morning.

Acc. to this press release, QRA will be at Nörvenich up to and incl. 27th of July. http://www.luftwaffe.de/portal/a/luftwaffe/!ut/p/c4/NYrBCsIwEAX_aDehotSboQhePAhS6y1tY4gk2bJs7cWPNzn4BuYyD59YyPYTvJVA2UZ84DCF47hB3IDYQ1xfkuBtR_KNxr7-ZwcTZSfV4rKEYs9WiGEhlljLylwKhBkHpTuj9uo__W3PV9Pcd-rQXcwNl5ROP8UTgzs!/...

two more arrived today: 45+00 no badge and 46+18 TLG 33.

Philippe, who needs to know why they are here. We aviation fans just need flying activities!!!

P.S. loc newspaper mentioned "construction work" at Büchel.

Relax, buddy - it's exactly that what the wing announced in the press and not difficult to find out for a clever man like you.
And by the way: I am Herbie, not Herby.
I never wrote something about 30 Tornados.......

Acc. to local newspapers the deployment starts this week and will end in week 33.

Arctic Challenge

there should be 12 German Eurofighters, incl. 30+75 and 30+80 from TLG 31 (det. to TLG74)

How about contacting the respective command? It's as easy as that.......

Of course you have to know the commands, but as I wrote before real hardcore fans will know.....
