Leeuwarden houses two F-16 squadrons, 322 and 323 sq. and the SAR flight equipped with Agusta-Bell AB412 helicopters.

This year the public days of the Netherlands air force are honored with the presence of three demo teams of absolute world class, Patrouille de France, The Red Arrows and the Blue Angels.
