I sent in a FOIA request regarding November's MAFEX exercise but have not heard back yet.

The reply for the May 2012 exercise was more than I hoped for. They sent me exactly what was in the air and from what unit. Joerg posted that info in the MAFEX Section of this site.

If they follow the previous years it should be Wednesday, November 21, 2012. Keep an eye out for the KLSV NOTAM a few days before 11/21. Below is a timeline I have in my notes:
