Last year we were told the F-117A and the Thunderbirds would be
arriving early and this year I anticipate that there will also be a
KC-10 arriving early with the three F-22As.
So the good news is there will be 3 F-22's :D
The bad news is they will arrive at Tuesday :cry:
More American stuff like the B-52,s and B-1,s will arrive early as the preform at various airshows in Europe a weekend early (Florennes Waddington Yeovilton).

A Nimrod MR2 in the static? Haven't seen those much at airshows over the last few years, even British ones...
Valkenburg 2005 clearly was an exception!

I think nothing changed about Hornets, as they are not mentioned as cancelled, nor as new additions

E-3A Sentry 1 Squadron CANCELLED
Euh which country is this? NATO operates the E-3A but they do not have a 1 Squadron, the RAF operated the E-3D with 8 and 23 sq, the USAF does not have E-3A's at all.
Assume makes an ASS of U and ME.

E-3As are the NATO aircraft. And the NATO Awacs is gone from the list, so it must be that one I think.
