Track fighter jets over Leeuwarden live
Leeuwarden Air Base is the northern fighter base of the Royal Netherlands Air Force, with training areas over the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Military aircraft often do not broadcast their position, or only partly, so not every flight can be seen here; whatever does broadcast gets a military label. You also see the traffic over Friesland and the Wadden Islands.
