From the monthly Aviodrome newsletter:
Bij de Aviodrome zijn er nu al drie DC-3 Dakota’s te zien. In het weekend van 6 en 7 september komen daarbij nog eens Dakota’s uit Hongarije en twee uit Nederland naar de Luchthaven Lelystad. De Nederlandse Dakota’s zijn van DDA-Classic Airlines, die nog vliegt met twee Dakota’s. Daarnaast is een aantal tijdgenoten van de Dakota’s aanwezig, waaronder de voorganger van de DC-3 en de Dakota, de Nederlandse DC-2 'Uiver'. Op vrijdag en zaterdag komt uit Duitsland een driemotorige Junkers Ju-52, die bekend werd als transport- en parachutistenvliegtuig. Op zaterdag verwacht de Aviodrome een tweemotorige Noorse A-26 Invader-bommenwerper uit 1944. Op zondag wordt de Aviodrome bezocht door de historische vliegtuigen van de leden van de Nederlandse Federatie Historische Luchtvaart. Verder komt er onder meer een in Amerika gebouwde B-25 Mitchell-bommenwerper en een P-51 Mustang-jachtvliegtuig, beiden uit de Tweede Wereldoorlog, die stuk voor stuk zullen proberen de show op de luchthaven Lelystad te stelen.
Looks like Sunday will be better than Saturday.

In 2004 , there were more trouble with the parking places and on the airfield where a lot of people . I Think that it was for the safety that a lot of spectators where outside the airfield .

For this weekend i hope that the spotters that are outside the field will come and visite the aviodrome and not only come for the pictures of the start and landing of the planes .

So the Ju-52 will only appear saturday, and the Dutch historic planes sunday... its a dillema, I can only visit one day!

Any trouble with the weather? They are expecting some pretty steep winds around the Ijselmeer.

Of course, weather can always become a problem. I just remember the July Fly-in when the saturday only saw Lelystad-based aircraft (don't know about the sunday). And as the Aviodrome always says on every outdoors event, only happening weather and technics permitting. (And of course this is not only for the Aviodrome, we have seen a lot of bad weather affected events this season :oops: )

Certainly not...
The Lisunov is still in Hungary, grounded because of the weather. Tomorrow morning they will try again. ETA would be somewhere in the afternoon, assuming they are not again "weathered in"...

The Junkers has arrived and even flown a sightseeing flight. Will make three local trips and leave again to Duesseldorf at 16.00 hrs.

Tomorrow PH-PBA will set her wheels on Lelystad soil, weather dependant of course. Sunday PH-DDZ is also supposed to visit Flevoland.

The Douglas A-26B Invader crew still plans to go to Holland. This aircraft will go back to Scandinavia (Norway?) Sunday afternoon. But if the weather is too bad she may not take off at all...
Sunday will see the arrival and departure of the Mitchell and other aircraft from Gilze-Rijen.

There is no talk at all about the Norwegian Dakota...
