Did you check the website? Apparently not. :mrgreen:

"....Apart from the refuelling display, Czech Air Force will display almost all types of aircraft and helicopters in its inventory....."
Due to the operational commitments in the Air Policing mission over the Baltic states, there will be no Czech Gripen solo display this year.”We only have a certain number of aircraft and pilots,” explains Verner. He promises an attractive ceremonial opening with a group fly-by of the Czech Air Force. “This year, we want to emphasize the helicopter force more than in the past,” concludes Verner.

I dont think so. I think, that it will be 2x MiG-29AS and one UBS, the solo one will probably participate also in dogfight. We do not have enough MiGs to send 4 AS to Ostrava

Hi everybody,

I'd like to know if anyone can confirm the Google Maps esteem of 1 hr 23 min from Katowice to Ostrava. Moreover, I'd like to ask to Leadfoot what he means for "bit scary" when speaking about the nearby agricultural area.

Thanks in advance

I'm not Leadfoot but I guess what was meant by that statement is that standing below a display line is a totally different (and stunning) experience compared to being at the crowd line. If you have not done this before you might be scared by passes like at 5:00 here:

Thanks p2philip, now I understand that I'd completely misinterpreted Leadfoot's sentence. If I succeed in being there next week I think one out of the two days I'll stay there!!

Oh, sorry, I haven't checked this thread for a while.
Maybe you'll read this only after the show, but anyway: as Philip kindly explained instead of me, I meant that in the very unlikely case anything goes wrong, under the flying displays is not the safest place to be.

See you there, enjoy the show. Unfortunately, I had to cut back my trip to only 1 day (Sunday). :(
