[VIDEO] Belgian F-16 interesting intake vortex - Monday 6th

Hi all,

I've seen some stills of the Belgians on Monday morning but here is some video footage of the launches and recoveries.

A couple of the jets were producing intake vortexes before launching :thumb:

Does anyone know where the U-2 departed to at 09.40? Back to the states? If so does that just leave the 1 U-2 here now (currently out as Black 01)?
Departed as BLACK02 so will be back this afternoon
