Until mid-September

Eurofighters to train at Hörsching from Friday

From Friday, June 21, 2024 until Monday, September 16, 2024, the Eurofighters will take off and land at the alternative airfield in Linz-Hörsching on several days. This measure is made necessary by a series of major events around the Hinterstoisser airbase in Zeltweg.

"In order to maintain continuous training and operational flight operations, the unrestricted use of the infrastructure at Hinterstoisser Air Base is necessary. Due to some major events, such as 'Schutzschild 24' or AIRPOWER24, this cannot be fully guaranteed. The relocation to Linz-Hörsching also offers a good opportunity to practice all measures necessary to maintain orderly flight operations away from the home base," says Defense Minister Klaudia Tanner.

The following periods
Eurofighter flight operations from the Forward Operating Site (FOS) Linz-Hörsching are planned for the following periods: June 21 to 24, 2024, July 5 to 8, 2024, August 9 to 12, 2024, August 30 to September 10, 2024 and September 13 to 16, 2024.
