According to FR, Pilatrus PC-24 D-COPI is possibly another interesting first-visit if the weather allows, as Storm Babette is incoming.
Schedule to land from LBG soon after 4pm then straight out to Berlin at 5pm

Although the US Army are quite rare visitors 84-00156 has visited twice before - first on 29th July 2019 when it did a low-approach and go-round, and then it landed on 29th November 2021.

The very smart black & white PC24 D-COPI "Platoon 819" made light of the forecast catastrophic weather (!!) arriving 5 minutes early, with a visual approach and no need of radar or ILS.
