Dutch F-16's in Ohio

Sat Nov 17, 2012 12:48 pm

All,

Does anyone know if the RNLAF F-16's are still training with the OHANG at Springfield?

I have a feeling the contract has concluded and they have returned to the Netherlands.

Cheers,

Tom Walsh.

I believe that program ended in 2010.

I'm not sure if you're interested, but I got to spend the day with them back in 2009 and got a ton of pics. I would be more than happy to post them here if there's any interest.

Cool subject.
I spent a month on the Netherlands in the 80s and remember watching the KLU F-16s screaming over the farmlands out near the coast at very low altitudes.
