Also due today are the US Navy Herc and P-8 and the Vulcan

There is also a TURAF39 following on which also looks like it is currently in the descent for Aviano. Unfortunately no type showing.

The radar image has just split into two aircraft TURAF 39/40, would suggest that it is Soloturk plus spare just on final descent into Aviano.

Gnat Display Team due in Friday at approximately 18.00.

Out of interest are there many acts that perform practice displays on the Friday?

The final part of the Turkish contingent is now showing on FR24. Indicating at FL200 and just passed Zagreb is MARTI1 which from its HEX code is Turkish Navy CN235 TCB-653.

11.05 The food must be good at Aviano as the Casa is also descending into there!

I'm updating @EGXWinfo on twitter with any information available - We have very little for tomorrow but this is the latest information I have put out:

Only addition since then is the Vulcan ETA at Waddington of 1500-1600L

Is there likely to be any information on what practice displays are on each day?

Ah so it is! I couldnt see it at first but I just realised the vipers are using TURAF and the 400 is using TUAF. How strange..

It almost looks like the A400 is currently acting as shepherd for the two fighters from the radar plots.
