Yes, cameras were no problem at all. Bare in mind that we were too late to visit the Spitfire-museum, but I suspect that cameras are no problem their either.

Furthermore a correction to my earlier log: the FA-75 had 'FS'-tailcode. (credit for noticing this: Oscar aka 'Otto')

Regards,

Stephan

I asked about it, and they told me "no".

But you can try ......

It was worth the visit, that is for sure.
Main runway is down, but they start from the small one.
And taxi back right next to the TLP - shelter, where the expo is held.
Be polite and not to "spotterish" , although !

I don't think it was a fuelstop as the helicopter was still there as we left around 17h30. I think its an arrival for the CSAR part of the TLP in the last week. The HH3F at the SARMEET at Koksijde this week departed this morning also to Florennes, and I guess they will participate the CSAR also at Florennes and join their collegues that arrived yesterday.
