Over ruim een week is het dan zover: de Aviation Day ! Hét evenement van spottend Nederland en omstreken, zorg dat je het niet mist. Wat gaat er allemaal gebeuren? Als eerste is er de Air Fete , de gerenomeerde luchtvaartbeurs voor jong en oud. Allerlei bladen, boeken, memorabilia, foto's/dia's, kle...

Wait, what? The wind has influence on the choice of runway? Seriously?

It looks pretty crystal clear this is the first visit of the EK A380...

And it's definitely not a Boeing as a Boeing would never dare call the pilot a retard!

Anyone for the departing Atlas Air (n/t) B747 around 14:25ish this afternoon?

Ta very much!

Hi y'all! I'll be in Moscow tomorrow but unable to actually make it to the show itself (grrrr :evil: ), but is there any info about activities in the city itself? A flypast perhaps, or a small static at Red Square? And what exactly is happening at St. Petersburg, where I will be all day Sunday? Some...

Anyone for the FDX B752F that arrived at 2130 local this evening?

Cheers

Hi,

Is there anyone out there who has been successful in organising a base visit to Ellsworth? Apart from the obvious (contact PAO), any tips? What can you expect on a visit? Or, in case it's a no-go, are they OK with us practising our hobby there?

Thanks a bunch!

Pat

Well done!!

It is actually 69-6239/HA, 69-0339 as on the overview page is an F-4E serial that was never taken up.

Thanks a bunch!

Hi!

Recently drove past this tiny airport and noticed a preserved A-7 with code HA. Couldn't stop to ID, but also can't find anywhere which one it is.

Any takers?

Cheers,
Pat

Oh dear...

Absolutely disgusting!! No matter how many T7s, Airbuses or Dreamliners they operate in Russia, as long as they stick to old habbits accidents will continue to happen and Russia will indeed be more dangerous to fly than Africa! Very lucky escape this...

Unbelievable

Anybody with a report yet by any chance?

Pat

Anyone for some freighters at Sierra this afternoon:
- B767 ABX
- B747 white with lots of titles
- MD11 Centurion

Many thanks!

Nitpicking, just out of interest: probably FL18 as reported by transponder, 2000ft on current QNH.
Taxiing by TWR-West at this very moment.

That's not fair, having him land on 18R! The taxi time alone most be longer than the flight...

Anyone for the World MD-11 this afternoon?
