Re: Volkel - Comments on participants

When someone gives a, in the eyes of others, "negative" comment the most reactions I see are "stay home" I think that it's like with elections....if you vote you may complain. Going to the airshow is for me as to vote. So you can not stay away otherwise you lose your democratic right to give a opin...

Re: Volkel - Comments on participants

So here is my advice: stay at home and start another hobby. Then you won't be disappointed. Meanwhile I will enjoy the Volkel Airshow! Deal? :wave:

Re: Vervanging F-16's

Aangezien die advanced F-16 al in een eerder stadium is afgevallen (op basis van de door de luchtmacht uitgevoerde vergelijking), lijkt mij dit niet echt meer een optie. Blijkbaar voldoet dat toestel niet. Het doorontwikkelen van een bestaand toestel heeft ook een keer zijn grenzen. Ik ben misschien...

Zie militaire nieuws, Australie heeft aangekondigd in een 10 jaar investeringsplan om 100 F-35's aan te schaffen. De eerste batch moet in 2014-2015 worden afgeleverd. Toch weer een land dat voor de JSF lijkt te gaan.
