Scramble Messageboard

I couldn't imagine that camera equipment would be confiscated at the gate :D Just another piece of info about the supposed ban on cameras and stuff: I had a closer look at my tickets and they say (in Hungarian) "the use of audio and image recording devices is permitted at the event" . So, that's of...

Last time it was 7 AM to 6 PM. Most probably they will stick to that this year.

Pretty great news... it seems, the Israelis have confirmed the F-16 and C-130.

Not a big surprise, but still bad news: Greece has officially cancelled their participation.

Reading the 'event info' on the ticket confuses me a bit: 'bringing audiovisual equiment incl. photo cameras is prohibited. Taking photo's during the event is prohibited' :shock: :shock: :shock: Is this normal procedure in Hungary? There's an icon printed on the ticket mentioning an E-ticket quick ...

Confirmation from Germany: Bo-105, Eurofighter and Tornado

By the way, how much is the entry at the show? It was 4000 HUF (approx. 15 EUR with the current rates) for the two previous shows (2007 and 2008). My bet is that it will either cost the same this year or maybe a bit more (like 5000 HUF). However, no official info on that yet, so this is just my gue...
