Was already afraid of that, but understandable. Difficult to cath them on my scanners from here..
I will concentrate on the Harriers then..
Thank you for the info.

Thanks Oscar,
It wasn't a stretched Herc so it was very likely 130328.
(I could have known that if I had checked the Volkel topic)

Indeed the Hercules was not for the airshow at Weeze but it could be seen flying around in the distance.

Question: do the Spitfire and Hurricane from BoBMF have a civil registration? I saw them 2 May making a low pass at Antwerpen EBAW.

Nope, they have military serials.
