Deze namiddag tussen 16u30 en 18u00 zal één van onze testpiloten van Vlb Kleine-Brogel een controlevlucht uitvoeren. Onze piloot zal met zijn F-16 door de geluidsmuur gaan. Dit veroorzaakt een doffe knal (Sonic Boom) die misschien hoorbaar zal zijn. Waarom? Hoe?

The @BeAirForce commander Gen Vansina paid a visit to #2WTac and #80UAV at #FlorennesAB, to check up on the corona measures taken for onsite personnel. He appreciated the efforts of both units to continue the ongoing daily business during the #COVID19 crisis. #QRA #proud

#DYK the @BeAirForce #F16 solo display pilot, #Vador, is a big #StarWars fan? His jet is called the #DarkFalcon and the artwork on this demonstration aircraft bears some subtle references as a tribute to the saga. Can you spot them? #MayThe4thBeWithYou
