Gifhorn district: Bundeswehr aircraft takes center stage
Recently, a Bundeswehr aircraft has made multiple appearances in the skies above Gifhorn. So, why is this plane circling the district like a persistent vulture, and why is it skimming the rooftops?

A Bunddeswehr spokesperson shared some intriguing insights with News38: "The reported flight activity involved a couple of A400M aircraft from LTG 62 based in Wunstorf, which were carrying paratroopers for parachute drops and participating in the WIC25 exercises at Celle airport." In other words, the aircraft held aviators who jettisoned out over the Celle-Scheuen training area.
When Flights Just Can't Wait
The spokesperson added that the flights took place on Monday, June 16, between 11:00 and 4:45 local time. So, what's the reason behind these urgent, daylight missions? The spokesperson explained the situation: "Parachute training exercises with LTG 62 and Seedorf trainees using A400M aircraft are scheduled in Celle for week 25. Additionally, there will be parachute drops occurring in the Celle area today until Friday."
Training to the Max
The air forces of the Bundeswehr have their hands full with various tasks, so aircrew members require thorough flight training and regular practice to carry out their duties effectively. The current security policy framework makes exclusions unfeasible, the spokesperson noted.
While part of the training nowadays relies on eco-friendly resources and simulators, real-world exercises are still paramount to ensure ongoing readiness for national and alliance defense, as well as international crisis management missions.
