Hello,
Most of the spotters went to Meiringen, Skrydstrup or Avord but we decided to take a risk by going for a small trip to Finland and visit the Tour de Sky airshow at Kuopio - Rissala.
Tour de Sky was 2 years ago at Oulu which is more northern than Kuopio and Kuopio is easier to combine with other bases.
On saterday the weather was nice, around 19 degrees cloudy with sun and only a few showers on the whole day.
On sunday the weather was ==censored== all day and we've decided to wait on the parking and finally we didn't go on base.

It was a small but very nice airshow with types you don't see often and also nice to do something different than most of the spotters.
Any additions or comments are welcome.
Kind Regards.

Rene,
The Gripens were all from Lulea, so F21
The NH90 was also from Lulea. The pilot confirmed that this type is nowadays only at Lulea and Ronneby - none at Malmen
MiG-21bis MG-129 was also in the static.

Thanks Andy for your reply.
I've changed the units.
I don't write the Mig-21, it's not operational anymore, unfortenately.

Hello Rene and others,
Did you have any luck with reading the c/n of the Swedish Hkp14D on the static? Painted on the tail?
As Andy has made a remark, the unit of this NH90 is 1.Hkpskv, which is based at Lulea.
Regards,
Hans van Herk
