Scramble Messageboard

Hi EOS, did the SR ever come back? It carried a centreline tank on the afternoon flight and we did not see it return (had to leave around 4 when it was already away for 3 hours at least)..

What time did the Cambrai Mirage come in?

Thanks!

4 RAF Typhoon just landed at Trapani..

Remy..

Isn't this a regular AMI Typhoon (4 Stormo badge)? Possibly an archive picture, although it does look more like Birgi than Grosseto + plane carries 3 tanks and missiles...

Hi Maarten, some nice shots there.

Can you share with us how many F-4's and A-4's went up that day? Or did you post a log already?

Thanks for the info!

Possibly support a/c operate from Malta (tankers, CSAR, AEW) while fighters are based at Birgi, Sigonella, Solenzara, Deci etc. Politically easier to sell? Although I understood people have heard fast jets take off from Malta tonight already. Just passing through, or..?

One of the F1CR already wears the code numbre of Mont de Marsan (118) where the recce birds are to deploy... Guess that one belongs to the CEAM I am not so sure. Probably Ex EC5/330, not repainted yet with 112 code (and maybe it won't, it's only a few months to go anyway). Each time I see an 118 co...

AFAIK Epinoy will be placed under care ("reserve basis"), so not closed (yet). All operational units will leave the base, leaving probably just security and a few required functions. What will happen to Niergnies, isn't that still a reserve base as well? Bit odd and expensive to keep 2 airbases unde...

Een lens met zo'n bereik is niet alleen interessant voor je luchtvaartfotografie, maar ook je andere hobbies (of hebben jullie die niet?), zoals concerten, vakanties, autoracen.. En persoonlijk vindt ik het perspectief tussen 200 en 300mm juist erg mooi (daaronder te "vlak"' en soms beetje saai, daa...

Assymetric reheat was also practiced a lot at Coltishall and probably many other bases with twin-engined fighters. Pilot has to stay on the centreline while performing missed approaches with 1 engine idle. I have seen it with Jaguars, AMI Tornado's, JG72 Phantoms but never with USAF jets like the F-...

Good news after all this bad news: In an update on Delta Reflex EC1/12 is now mentioned to continue operations from Cambraii until April 2012 with 20-odd pilots and 12 Mirages, extending the service life of the 2000C in France. So no need to bring handkerchiefs to the Tiger meet this year... yet. Bart

From the Delta Reflex forum, don't think it needs transaltion: Juin 2011 .....Résumé des Déménagements et Dissolutions Dissolutions : EC 03.003 EC 03.004 EC 01.012 ET 00.043 ETOM 55 ETOM 58 ....2012 ????

Murcia-San Javier: Camping ligt ingeklemd tussen strand en de basis, pal t.o. de civiele terminal. Langs het strand bij Rota liggen ook een paar campings, maar of daar nog veel interessants te beleven valt tegenwoordig.. Stans-Buochs idem, leuke camping tussen basis en het Vierwoudstedenmeer. Maar g...

Nou, nog iets gekker mag wel; zou het wel eens met zero gravity willen proberen! Commerciele seksvluchten net buiten de dampkrang, waar bondage niet alleen lekker, maar ook nog functioneel is.

Geweldig die RF-4C's. En dan toch weer Van Halen erachter zetten he die yanks (gelukkig wel 1 van de betere nummers deze keer). Zijn dit niet de High Rollers van de Idaho ANG? Die hadden zich dus beter de Low Rollers kunnen noemen. Die vent in dat bootje op 0:41 had ook een leuk uitzicht, ben je lek...

Digifoto Pro is erg goed en niet duur. Niet heel frequent maar de 2 "specials" per jaar maken het toch de moeite waard. High quality paper, zowel apparatuur als fotografie komt aan bod en de onderwerpen spreken mij tenminste erg aan. Niet zo geschikt wellicht als je ALLEEN MAAR luchtvaart fotografie...

Not bad! How about painting one in the old colour scheme as well?
