Luchtlandingen 19 Sept. 2009 (Airborne Memorial Jump)

[Withnail]

Does anyone know from which place the droppings are best seen?

[mitchell]

If you are close to the N224 road you are facing the sun. If you stand at spot 2 you can photograph them from the side, or you can walk a little further on the Ginkelse Heide.

[REACH111]

No doubt the above is correct and the hercs will operate from Eindhoven as said.

Just to add that Volkel is open for some hours that day, according to notams:
19 SEP 11:00 2009 UNTIL 19 SEP 13:00 (zulu)

Cheers,
Oz

The F-16 Demoteam will be present that day at De Peel for an Airdisplay !!

For the People that dont know where they will fly, below a small map.

Number 1 is the Line where most of the C-130's will fly from overhead the Ginkelse Heide.
Number 2 is where the Commemoration will take place, also all the veterans are there.

...map...

Kind Regards,
Mitchell v/d Berg

says the C130s will be coming in from the south, so I guess the arrow number 1 will be in the opposite direction this year ...
Doesn't really make much difference for those on the ground though

Anyway a great event. I'll definitely try to be there, if I don't have to work that weekend

Anybody a Idea when the other visitors will arrive?

[K-9]

And will all visitors arrive at Eindhoven ? It seems to be a pretty large list....

[Stephan Lodewijks]

And will all visitors arrive at Eindhoven ?

Yes: Eindhoven.

[stealth]

Anybody a idea which route they will fly. Will they fly direct from Eindhoven to the dropzone? Or will they fly a part of the orginal route over Brabant?

[Oscar01]

No clue on routing. Though on the webpages it says "they are inbound from the south".

Does anyone know whether there will be flights on Sunday 20th September? Last year at Soesterberg the US C-130s made multiple flights on Sunday. What can we expect this Sunday?

[Arnoud]

Tijdens de herdenkingsceremonie rond 12.00 werd er een dropping gedaan uit twee Nederlands geregistreerde, als ik het goed gezien heb, Cessna 208 Grand Caravans. Weet iemand misschien welke twee dit waren?

Tijdens de eerste runs heb ik trouwens het volgende genoteerd :
ZH880 C-130
881 ? C-130
88601/RS C-130
88603/RS C-130
88604/RS C-130
88606/RS C-130
ZA947 Dakota C3


Groet,
Arnoud

De twee Ce208's waren de PH-SWP de PH-JMP van 'Skydive Teuge'. Volgens de commentator sprongen hier de pathfinders uit.
Ook mogen we wat mij betreft de twee Harvards PH-IIB/B-71, PH-MLM/B-118 en B-25N Mitchel N320SQ niet vergeten die na de Cessna's hun rondjes vlogen.
