"Does anymbody know if the Mirages have moved for the time or does this notam only apply for civil traffic?" The base closed for civil traffic a few years back, so the Mirages are likely to move elsewhere for the time. Is it known if it will become a civil airport again once the active AdlA squadron...

Hoi, mil chopper just passed my office in Amstelveen, inbound Schiphol-Oost it seemed. Couldn't see it properly; probably AH-64 judging by the sound and looks, but potentially an UH-60.

The pods on the F-5F; isn't that the standard Swiss towed decoy system? The (smaller) decoy itself on one station, the "mothership" with winch on the other. The No PC-6 sign probably has to do with the fact that taxiing to/from Pilatus at Buochs crosses a public road and with the limited view of a t...

Hi Key. Thanks. I wouldn't know how to use SmartRecovery or similar freeware but keep an eye on the Scramble airfield guide for this particular base this week.. ;-)

Thanks! I stand corrected. 606 is indeed the correct serial for 33-CU, photo-proof.

Arriving at Reims 3.30 PM from a very quiet Florennes, the following was noted here: Reims-Champagne, 8 September 2008 610/33-CI F1CR 606/33-CU F1CR 104/12-KG M2000C o/s /XN TBM.700 Gendarmerie checked us but no problems.

Hi Tim, there are a lot of photographers who are more experienced in the Ebenfluh range event (such as Peter Steehouwer) but some useful information can be found here: http://www.flugzeugforum.de/forum/showthread.php?p=406734" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (German) http://www.scrambl...

Good luck!

Thanks a lot, will call them.

Bart

Dear all, can someone help provide the name and even telephone number of the Gastezimmer place in Unterbach which overlooks the Meiringen airbase?

Thanks in advance!

Bart
