At this moment above the IJsselmeer GNY4610. A Lynx coming from Nordholz and just passed Lemmer westbound.
Does anybody know a serial?

14:10lt OSY29F AN30 1104 Romanian AF 9950ft now overhead Volkel, Open Skies flight (source ADS-B).
Clearly audible and visible with the naked eye here over Epe a few minutes ago. Even while it is a well-known aircraft, it was a nice sight and sound!
As a side note, Romania is NATO member since 2004, why do they still do Open Skies flights over Western Europe? Wouldn't it make more sense to do this over Russia?

They would probably be shot down.
Russia left the Open Skies Treaty in 2021. So no flights over Russin since then.
This morning, April 9th, around 9:27 2 Tornados from Norvenich claerly visible at high altitude to the Dutch Waddeneilanden. Probably GAFB11 and 13. Around 9:55 again but now GAFB21 also a 2-ship from Norvenich. Anybody for their ID's?

If you saw Tornados, then these were not GAFB11/13, as GAFBxx are callsigns used by TaktLwG 31. TaktLwG 33 uses GAFExx when flying abroad.
