Yes, that's correct.

Just a quick note to say that USAF B52s has been flying through European airspace recently. They came to Europe to take part in the NATO exercise in Norway, but seem to have stayed on, apparently stationed at Fairford from where they fly to our eastern NATO border for exercises in the context of the deployment of a NATO deterrence force there.

A B52 has been flying through Belgian airspace a couple of times recently. Worth keeping an eye out for it.
