Re: Air Defender 2023

See Scramble airfield guides on this site.

But things might be different for this exercise (additional measures, closed off areas adjacentto the base, roads closed - all guesses at this point), so please please please tread carefully so we can all enjoy the action hopefully.

They are active at least on Instagram and possibly Facebook, but I am no longer using social media so cannot check, apologies!

Re: 16/18 June 2023: Pratica di Mare airshow 100 years Italian Air force...

Finally! Cool. With the "terrific" photo oppurtinities at Pratica airshow in mind (facing the sun), it would be interesting to know where these would transit through, if of course they cross the pond on their own power..

I guess he meant 46+54, which I saw there a few days earlier?

Re: TLP 23 -1 Albacete

Ah, sorry. Yes you're right. By the way Monday we also had 1 or 2 ground aborts, and pity the CAG bird didn't fly that much this week. Did you notice 2 ECR Tornado's have the same pilot names (callsigns) under the canopy? Both 46+23 and 46+54 have ROCKY (front seat) and SLIP (backseater) printed. :-...

Re: TLP 23 -1 Albacete

The F-16D backseater is not Greek I think. Probably the TLP "referee". Look at his helmet & flightsuit, different colour/type than the pilot in front.. It also was not part of a 2- or 4-ship.

Re: TLP 23 -1 Albacete

Well the King is in Dubai, so hopefully for him Sanchez can enjoy some of these privileges now.. :-) Nice to see it fly though, cool! I saw an army Puma in the hangar. Could read only HU... That was likely your ET-511. It was behind screens, left of the VIP Super Puma when looking into the hangar. O...

Re: TLP 23 -1 Albacete

Hi Ronald, sorry for the delay, am traveling at the moment. Babcock site is under construction, but Airbus is worth a peek. The presidential Puma is still inside (so keep an eye out for the hangar doors to open) and an NH90 was doing several short test flights. That spot is anyway where you want to ...

Re: TLP 23 -1 Albacete

TLP take off between 3 and 4 PM today, led by 2 pairs of Super Bugs. No AWACS participation and no/few additional participants it seems. Locals didn't fly (perhaps early morning).

Log will follow
