Also,does anyone know the best place to see/photograph the flypast? jason Depends on what kind of pictures you want to make. If you like head-on the top of Arc de Triomphe would be great I think (if it is open), at least I saw some pictures from the Patrouille de France from that spot in the museum...

So it's posible they can again be seen as the possible 4th team at Leeuwarden?

that old KMAR one... You mean KM one I think... KMAR is the "Marechaussee", specialized in sending away spotters from airfields and driving their motors over the footway, starting their sirenes if they come closer than 2 metres from an old woman to take right of way. :evil: Didn't mention the Gnats...

That's just what I thought about. All the people that (can) not arrive during the rush hours.

Some more additions according to "de vliegende hollander":

NH-90
UH-1 (private)
Yak-3

as far as I can remember from reading in the library (At least they got the one with the showpreview, missed it the last few years there).

BAD should still be working on some more surprises.

Would be awesome to see the KDC-10 flying as impressive (and as low!) as it did yesterday at Leeuwarden. That low? At what height do you expect the F-16 on the simulated hook-up? :lol: But to get a bit more serious, ( :?: ) does BAD or anybody else have any ideas if the busstrike might also affect ...

enjoy the mirage 2000 solo, last time according to the magazine. Last year the French Air Force said the 2000 would have had cut down its number of displays, in their opinion it should only display in France before Rafale should take over the duty of airdisplays. So having it: Well done everybody :...

Re: Dutch F-16

No need for special tails Maybe not for you, but I would like to have all special tails together at the static. Not only for this year, but also the specials that will be around in the future, just when permission for a special tail is granted, tell them that they have to show that one at the first...

Read about the deployment of the louisiana f-15's to the UK. Invite those guys overhere instead of the wellknown LN f-15's What I understand from the SIS updates, they will only have one nightstop at Lakenheath, and depart the following day again, so I think they are gone already during Leeuwarden....

Yeah, it was nice to see the machine is still in this colourscheme :))

But I still insist, there is no orange in it, as someone said at EHKD (but I know, I'm colourblind)

Sometimes I think (especially in this forum) "are some people just posting for the posting, working off their feelings again and again (and again) or might they maybe have read the answers to their posts?". But I won't call any name, even not by PM. Pffff...

Re: Hawk B-1's - Berlin Air Show

Hi Today silly, but a very important question, as it will help solve a problem I have when they overflew southern England. When the 2 B-1's arrived at Berlin for the Berlin Airshow 2008, did they arrive together (in lose formation) with the lead callsign of Hawk 11 When they departed back to EL, di...

Re: Leeuwarden 20-21 June - Wish list / Comments

If I am correct these noise rules are in place this year because of some festivities/ceremonies in the morning not that far from Leeuwarden Air Base. This would mean that next year Volkel will not have these constraints... What I remember, these festivities were mentioned to be some kidsparties. :c...

Re: Leeuwarden 20-21 June - Wish list / Comments

Hi, are you all really serious to think, that we did not contact the Vulcan guys? We know them for many years. We keep all options open and we are talking with all possible airshow acts. You're right, the Vulcan is only performing in the UK this year, but we keep on trying for next year. Main probl...
