All in all I was not too impressed with the show. Surely the Norwegian helicopters were a very welcome catch, but the show was small. Even smaller than we had expected. And why only one Norwegian F-16 on the static, why hide the second Typhoon, where was the announced demo of all Norwegian types in the air? It could have been much better, but I guess the inexperience showed. Good thing was the very close distance to the city. First time ever I walked from my hotel to an airshow! (by sender)
