Since I didn't see anyone post it...some days ago the Turkish AF PAO staff open a Google Community page to give information regarding the spotter days. I copy and paste the main message from this page https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/105062419277662948781 --- Dear Friends; We are waiting for ...

- Italy (Tornado)
- Netherlands (KC-10)
- NATO (AWACS)
- Pakistan (F-16) - Saudi Arabia (Tornado)
- Turkey (F-4E 2020, F-16, AEW)

Italy will bring 6 Tornado (3x IDS from 6th Wing + 3x ECR from 50th Wing)

Just got info that there is an app (iOS and android) about the Air Show, search for IMAS on your phone store.

Look like F-5 and F-1 are not present in the static display.

Flight schedule
APRIL 27 / 14.30-16.00
APRIL 28 / 14.30-16.00
APRIL 29 / 14.30-16.00
APRIL 30 / 10.00-18.00

Well... it seems JF17 rumours are true since RMAF is probably going to buy it as replacement for the F-5 and it seems they are going to finalize the deal during the Air Show.

My contact there told me also that US will be present with : F-16 / CV22 / C-130 and KC135

According to RTAF PAO DEPT. NO FOREIGN MEDIA will be allowed to cover the event, only a few lucky local journalist will be allowed on base.
PLAAF decision is a BIG NO on the RTAF request to arrange a media event on that.

By the way KORAT has good spotting point from outside…

Thanks for the info

That sounds very interesting… please Piet keep us on the line about that

wow...that's a very good news!!! The only thing I can't understand is why NO F-5 will attend the LIMA
