Scramble Messageboard

Hi all, Some shots from Mont de Marsan from September 13th. Two Mirage F1s landing after an early morning mission. Too bad the weather didn't want to play ball. http://i37.servimg.com/u/f37/14/77/94/01/q110.jpg One of the local Rafales. http://i37.servimg.com/u/f37/14/77/94/01/q310.jpg Mirage F1B 51...

Als ik alles een beetje goed bij heb gehouden, dan kan de Nikon D600 eigenlijk ook bij het lijstje van camera's. Deze body is de laatste full frame van Nikon en heeft veel positieve reacties gekregen. De camera verkoopt tussen de 2000 en 2100 Euros, wat toch wel een heel stuk lager is dan de prijs v...

After a very disappointing start on Saturday it turned out to be a good weekend after all.
Was great to catch up with so many people!
Just one shot for me:

Voor alle mensen met een spotter/fotograaf-identiteitscrisis: kom naar Frankrijk, want hier schrijft niemand nummertjes, maakt iedereen foto's, maken mensen close-ups van delen van het vliegtuig, hebben bepaalde mensen een ego omdat ze denken fotograaf te zijn en is uiteindelijk iedereen een 'spotte...

Hi all, Just got a phone call that the website http://www.100letvvs.ru/?r=ticket& has been updated for us foreigners. You can now give your name/email/passport number. Dear friends! If you are not a Russian citizen and want to get a free ticket for an air show «100 years of Russian VVS», fill in the...

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the quick reply !!

The M346 in primer looks cool !!

Hi all, After surfing the net, I still didn't find an answer to the question that I posted above, but judging from the different topics on sites like UKAR http://forums.airshows.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=41096&start=75 , it seems that both Saturday and Sunday are not open to the general public . Sa...

Surfing on http://www.100letvvs.ru I came across the following sentence and I'm wondering what it means: "August 12 - Aviation festival dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the Russian Air Force (the entrance for visitors is free, by invitation only)."

By invitation only?

New on the site: Mirage F1 flying during the show.

As far as I know, these aircraft would come over for the show, so no exercise. What is a bit confusing is that the Qatar Mirage 2000's were planned for Avord and that they were cancelled there. Now they have been put on the list for Evreux. As the Qatar C-17 was canceled for Mont de Marsan (before t...

The only thing that you could miss if you're on the other side is some choppers that might take off in the other direction. At the same time, that goes for both sides. Last year a Navy Merlin took off from the far side and did not pass the other end of the runway. What I mean by everything is known,...

Sorry to say this, but I really don't understand why numbers would be an issue on the Monday after RIAT? Everything is known, put on at least ten different message boards and written down on the checklist that you can buy... No way that you are going to miss anything number-wise. For photos, you don...
