Hello all, according to some sources within the RAAF the Caribou is grounded at the moment, due to a hard landing of one caribou in Papoua New Guinee. This landing caused structural damage to the aircraft, which will never fly again. The fate of all other Caribous is uncertain. At the moment they're...

Hello Motty,

do you know if there will be another US deployment during October? At the Amberley air show USAF F-15 (s?) are expected, and I was wondering if they just came over for the show or if they are already in the area?

Michel

The spare stayed at Kleine Brogel.

Does anyone know at which gate entry to the base will be?

Hello,

Just overhead Mönchengladbach, inbound Geilenkirchen an unknown E-3. I am pretty sure it wasn't a NATO one. This one did not make the familiar E-3A sound, and was without smoke. (I see enough Nato Awacses fly over my work, so I know this one was different)

Anyone got a clue?

regards,

Michel

Good morning, I will be going to the Balkan for a weekend, for the airforce days in Serbia. I have got some time left, so I want to visit one of the next airports: Sofia, Bulgaria, or Podgorica, Montenegro or Petrovec in Macedonia. Has anyone got experience with these (military part of) airports? If...

Hello,

is there anyone who has been on these air force days before?
I can't find logs or photo's of such days in the past, but I would like to know if it's worth going to Batajnica & Ladjevci.

Regards,

Michel

Hi Robert,

All the Mi-171's I saw were without an H, and I am very sure about all serials read. I did not take pictures over there, so I don't have photoproof.

At Velika Goriza, I spotted these aircraft from farmland, some 200 meters from the base. After that, I found out it was much easier to drive along the fence, and read everything again. There was a lot of personnel in and outside Velika, because of the testflying which was going on there. But fortuna...
