Volkel Vipers

Post by bvdbogaert » Fri Jun 24, 2022 11:48 pm

Today saw the return of 11 Vipers from an exercise in Norway. Nothing particularly special, but it might well have been the last time that 10+ Dutch vipers flew in one day. The arrival of the F-35 at Volkel is near.

A picture of each one:

Thanks for sharing these, nice shots. Approaching the end of an era and it will be a sad day when the last Viper goes.

Excellent shots. We took them for granted, but will miss them when they are gone!
