MC-12W is the L3 Demonstrator/Trials aircraft, not Raytheon
Airbus A321 in BMi colours will become G-MEDU not MIDU

Does anyone know which dark green helo was parked just behind the EF Typhoon on the static? We saw this one from the parking roof opposite the museum.

Thanks in advance,

Michel

When would that one come?

On Friday around noon, Air France A320 F-GFKJ (the Anniversary colours) arrived together with DC-3 PH-PBA (mix AF/KL old colours), and went on static display at the show.

Boeing 777-300ER is not at the show, and also B777-200F already left before Friday.

During the flight display on Friday, a French Airforce B707 Awacs, serial 36-CD, did a fly-over twice before returning to it's base.

Hi,

Does someone have the E-3 serial from today? I was just inside the HC-130 when he made his passes.... :drinking:

By the way, that HC-130 will depart for EGUN on monday (and stay there for some days).

Hi,

Did anyone read off the USAF C-40 on the other side, looked like the serial started with '5' to me.
Also two grey French Army helicopters (Cougars?) arrived in the afternoon. I was way back in the static-area. Codes looked like 'FY' and 'FZ' to me, who can confirm this?

cheers, Per

I am afraid I didn't stay long enough for these. In the morning we saw two (grey) Fennecs (VA and WF), one (green) AdlA Puma (AO) and one (grey) EC.725 (SE).

Very nice that someone heard from someone that the 2 Rafales would be the same.... but has anyone actually read these? There is a picture on A.net claiming the flying plane is the 303/330-EA. Unfortunately, the serial can´t be read on that picture, so no proof. Anyone who read the serials at Le Bourget?

There is a database that tells us that regs are correct and unit is ETEC 00.065, my guess this is correct based on the carried load. The database is here.

Hello all,

Sorting out my Le Bourget log from last sunday I've the following questions;

- Does someone knows the two AMI Falcon 900's were in the roundhouse by Dassault?
- Who knows the registrations of a Extra 330 of the AdlA, 1x A319/320, both on the other side of the displaygrounds.
- Behind the Axis Airways 737 was a white 737, is his registration known, and behind that one there was a swiss bizzjet.
- Are the Tigre and NH90 in the stand of Eurocopter mock-ups?

best regards,
Arno Cornelissen
