Yes I do,
But anyone a clue from who it came (heard some volkel crew last week that said they were going to visit "die homo's van 323" )
So it may not have come from the "Polly Grey Squadron" after all?

Supposedly "weather reasons", i.e. bad weather on the way back home...

The Frecce pilot with the Dutch name (he was born in Roma) is Jan Slangen.
There is a Belgium woman F-16 pilot lt. Anne-Marie Janssens.
I dont know if she was the display pilot, I tought it was Mickey.

No, she is not. Belgian F-16 display pilot is "Mickey" Artiges of No. 350 Sqn.

I attended the Open Dag on Friday & would like to find out whether I saw MB.339's MM54538 & MM54539. From the public area I could only see codes 0, 1, 2, 3 & 4 of the Frecce Tricolori on the flightline - later I saw 10 of them flying.

David, on friday aircraft 1 to 10 flew the show, MB.339 "0" stayed behind at the flightline as spare aircraft.
