More likely a factory a330 like the a400m at kb in 2018 or an raf one like at eart 2019...

Still... a first of many years to come of an a.330mrrt at the klu open dagen!

Or... a fly by of t-264 with a voyager...

No country stated on the app either, altough the picture in the app shows an Australian one ...
Now how cool would that be 8) :shock:

( I wouldn't count on it though)

Thinking about it, there is actually somewhat of a slight chance?
All other aircraft show a picture of the exact aircraft that is coming to the show (maybe not the registration, but the country at least)

There has recently been an article in de Vliegende Hollander about Dutch KDC-10 personnel training in Australia for the conversion to A330 MRTT’s... That does make it a little more likely, but still wishful thinking though

If somebody from the organisation is reading this: Thanks, but a few points.

If you have a taxiway near the public, please make a point of using it as much as possible, even if it's not the shortest route. It puts the public, general public and photographers alike, much more in contact with what's going on and with the pilots. That's what you want, right?

And please, don't put tents along the crowdline. I'm not talkling about reserved viewing areas but about stuff that should be put elsewhere so as not to obstruct the views. The whole eastern end was blocked, so that the public was much less spread out than possible.

Indeed, very true. Huge sections were completely blocked from view. Lots of demos were completely impossible to view as public. On if you stood in front of a big screen. But these made more noise than then planes.

Same with position of that beautiful Starfighter and Italian F-35.
It was put on static, but place was "not that good".

Not to mention traffic driving in front of the crowdline.
I know layout of Volkel is not well suited for another "approach", but they could have come up with something different.
