Roel, now you went too far......... :x One of the rarest types of the century-series! I remember you were teasing us at the old spottersplace in EHSB with this F-106 trip. If I still remember you went there with "Henri the painterman", didn't you? Okay, now after 20 years I will finally admit..........

Bij nader inzien is de vleugelvorm bij een F-27 inderdaad anders, maar er schoot me spontaan een KLu Open Dag op De Peel in 1980 te binnen. Daar stond namelijk een Angolaanse Friendship Maritime............. Ik was ingezoomd op Lobito en schoot toen met mijn muis uit, zodat die kaart "wegliep". Ik s...

Maybe a bit off-topic here, but regarding the box of slides called the "spotters archive": I used to be the holder, or call it guardian, of this box. When I moved to Germany back in 1992 I thought it was only fair to keep it within range of SSB for anyone to be accessible. I handed it over to Lesley...

Even terug naar Lobito.............

Kijk eens hier:
12°19'27.29"S 13°30'41.40"E
en zoom dan flink in.

Wat is dit? Een F-27 wellicht?

In bovengenoemd geval (Frankfurt) vloog er overigens een Luftwaffe A310 een dienstje Brussel v.v. om een groep ministers aldaar op te halen.

FIRDA shows AME4719 as departing SPL to Orland at 16.05lt.

Unfortunately there is no inbound information, which usually does not mean much good.

Just keep your fingers crossed :?

Nice pictures indeed!

By the way, looking at the SELCAL, your NW DC-10 is either N236NW (AL-EK) or N243NW (CL-EK).

I understood it was a plastic AH-64...... "Made in China" you know :wink: Talking about western types..... do not forget the Zimbabwan Provost and the Tanzanian Piaggio 149! Now I remember that I am still looking for the identity of a Mi-24 in this museum. In 1997 it was parked in the cave and wore ...
