The mechanics tried to fool the spotters by taping over a few serials (for 
example the J-138 looked like J-728), but the above serials are the correct ones.

The annual Royal Netherlands Air Force airshow was held at Leeuwarden this year. 
During the two-day event, that was preceded by a spotters day during the arrivals 
on Thursday, over 150,000 people visited the base. From a spotters point of view,
the event did not offer the best opportunities for photography. A number of the 
aircraft participating in the static display was surrounded by fences. On the plus 
side, the FWIT-course provided quite a large number of F-16s that could be identified. 
Furthermore the organisation was able to attract some interesting and rare aircraft 
(Turkish and Greek F-4s, an AFRC C-130, a USAF KC-10, Irish PC-9, etc.). The weather 
was cooperative during both days and, considering the large number of commitments
by many NATO-members, the airshow itself included a number of interesting displays. 
Apart from a birdhit by the Dutch Hunter and a Spanish Hornet that was unable to 
retract its main landing gear, the programme was concluded without problems.
