Re: Boeing offers OV-10X Bronco to USAF

I think the Korean A-50 has also a good chance...being basically a small F-16 it can refuelled in the air something the others can't..

time will tell...it is however a nice addition no matter which aircraft they choose!

Due to this crash all F-16's in the IDF/AF are grounded pending investigation.

Re: British Chinook helicopter deliberately destroyed in Afghani

it means that it will be too costly and dangerous to dismantle the Chinook and fly it back with a different Chinook.
an ideal way for us spotters to see new Chinooks...as it is going fast down with those British Chinooks. :mrgreen:

Re: Spotten @ Spangdahlem

Hoi Oscar, het is geen nieuwe discussie. Ik heb dezelfde discussie jarenlang met de Polizei gevoerd op mijn thuisbases Wildenrath en Bruggen. Ook hier kreeg ik regelmatig bezoek en het verzoek geen foto's van de basis te maken. Slechts in de lucht was toegestaan. Aan het eind van de opening van de b...

Kijk hier ligt nu een stuk verantwoordelijkheid van ons als spotters en van scramble als moderators... Als de yanken cq Duitsers nu niet willen dat er infra op de foto's te zien is...plaats ze dan niet. We vragen zelf om de problemen, het is duidelijk dat de security van de yanken en de Duitse poliz...

Re: Volkel 19-20 June 2009 - Participants

A-10 81-0962 is confirmed as an A-10C. It was confirmed as so at Mildenhall the end of may.
I won't be surprised if the other one is also already an A-10C. Both lack the antennae's that identify them as C models.

hurray...PH-NRA....more civil sh*t.
They better start calling it the civiele luchtvaartdagen instead of the "luchtmachtdagen"
Let's hope some good military stuff is still not published and will come!
