Scramble 334 will be out in a couple of days.

[jurgen]

In this month's edition we have special features about:

-AIR FORCE OVERVIEW DENMARK.
The Danes have relied on older equipment for some time now. But the C-130Hs have been replaced by C-130Js and the Sea Kings are being replaced by EH101s. The search for the replacement of the F-16 is still exciting as the Danes have not decided yet.

-AIRFIELD GUIDE LONDON-CITY
Is it an airport or an aircraft carrier? Although it looks like the latter it is a very busy airport in the hart of London. Lots of spots to spot and graph aircraft.

-AIRFIELD GUIDE MILANO - MALPENSA
The largest airport of Milan is being introduced. Inevitable for those civil aviation enthusiast visiting Northern Italy during the Summer holidays.

-AERO INDIA
The biggest market for military aircraft in Asia lies in India. So no need to explain why every aircraft manufacturer was present to show their hardware. This combined with lots of local aircraft gave a few nice days at this airshow.

-CFB BORDEN
An inside view of this large training facility in eastern Canada. Lots of instructional airframes are present as well as an operational unit at this airfield which was constructed in WW2.

-427 SQ
This unit is the special operations aviation element of the Canadian Forces. Our reporter was there and will tell you everything about it.

-RAF CONINGSBY
Currently one of the most popular airfields in the UK. Lots of flying going on with operational and test units operating the Typhoon, Tornado and Jaguar. And occasionally a glimpse of the BoBMF with Lancaster and Spitfires. A guide to all the best spots to take pictures or numbers with an overview of all the current units and their inventory.

MEET THE SCRAMBLE EDITORIAL TEAM
First chance this year is on 14 April 2007 at the Dutch Spotters Convention at Rotterdam Airport. In the terminal building dozens of booths will be put up with slides, photos, videos, books, magazines, DVDs/CDs, postcards, aircraft models and many other aviation related collectables. Also other aviation societies and aviation companies will be present. Finally - to be confirmed - tours over the apron and runway of the airport will be organised. Meanwhile the airport restaurant is an excellent location to socialise with friends and fellow enthusiasts, enjoying a cup of coffee and/or a sandwich. The convention is not only meant for aircraft spotters, but also for other persons interested in civil and military aviation. Rotterdam Airport, Airnieuws Nederland and Dutch Aviation Society invite all aviation enthusiasts to come to Rotterdam!!

Another chance to meet us and fire all your questions and remarks is the annual Open day of the Royal Netherlands Air Force. This year on 15 and 16 June at one of few Main Operating Bases left, Volkel Air Base. Lots of numbers, the sun in your back all day and the organizers have never let us down.
