Thanks!
After take-off of the Apache content of the Air Power Demo, AH-64 Q-10 was towed towards the hangar area. It could have been that one.

EF-18 and other events

Post by Stafsels »

Hi all,

Is know why the EF-18A did not fly on friday?
Machine was turned on and somewhat later off.

Same question goes for the break off of the display of the Patr. de France?
Or was this just the low show?

Is know what caused the white smoke at the airbrake of the SAAB JAS-39 on landing on Saturday?

Greetings,

Henk

I think that the EF-18A was damaged..

After the Airshow on friday, they removed the other EF-18A from the static to the Flightline. This EF-18A has also flown the Demo on saturday.

The Patrouille de France did the Low-Show on friday..

About the Gripen:

This was the APU that was switched on... If you have any pics of it and you see two ducts open on the left tailsection, this area has the APU in it.
YOU DON'T NEED WHITE LENSES IF YOU GOT A WHITE CAMERA.

The PdF did abort, their narrator announced this over the speakers, saying he was sorry they aborted their show.
He didn't say anything about the cause though.

As for the Gripen, I have never seen one smoke like that after touchdown.
AFAIK the APU is only started in case of engine trouble, or for starting the engine when there is no external power available.

I though that hey said that it was because of the very low clouds (1000 feet).

According the GRAS checklist:
E31/5
E41/4
E46/7
E95/8
E114/2
E130/1
E134/0
E135/9
E163/6
E165/3

Not checked myself, but I have no reason to believe these are wrong.

Is er echt helemaal niemand die de twee Cougars heeft gelezen die ´s ochtends vlogen?
In elk geval voel ik me dan geen stumper meer omdat ik ze niet kon lezen....

S-459 is 100% en de 2e is 458; de staart zit dusdanig onder de uitlaatdampen maar deze heb ik 100% confirmed tijdens de AP-demo dus die heeft vaker gevlogen deze dag en de 456 (andere optie) zeker niet, kom die in geen enkele log tegen dus die sluit zichzelf uit.

Beide AS532 vlogen eerst met de bambi-bucket en daarna in de DHC-flight past, de AH-64 was de Q-16.

CH-47's waren idd D-664 en -666 (met nieuwe inlaat).

Airpower AH-64's: Q-10, 16, 21, 24.
Airpower CH-47's: D-664 & -666.
AS532's: S-438, 441, 450, 454 (nieuwe kleuren), 458, 459

Adios,

Hurricane
Groeten,
Ron

De S459 dacht ikzelf ook al te lezen, de ander was inderdaad te zwart voor mij om te lezen. Gezien waar die vandaan kwam is S458 wel waarschijnlijk..... en nu het goede nieuws.... samen met de S433 was dat mijn laatste! :worship:

Dank voor het antwoord!

Thanks! I was hoping it might have been Q-13, the only non-Fort Hood based one I need :(

Voor de mensen die het GRAS checklist team hebben gemist op 18 of 19 juni, er is nu ook een online checklist beschikbaar; http://www.gras-spotters.nl/index.php/o ... ist-online. Heb je dus nog vragen open staan, zoek dan daar het antwoord.

Groeten,
Edwin
