Belgium Sanicole 14-16 Sep: SAAB VIGGEN + Tunnan, B-52, etc.

Post by Stratofreighter »

For the Viggen-news, see http://www.airshows.be/viewtopic.php?f= ... 4&start=42 :!:
Yes, he is part of the organisation... :idea:

No, the Saab AJS-37 Viggen isn't on the official website http://airshow.sanicole.com / http://www.sanicole.com/nederlands/ yet, but it very soon will be! 8)

The Swedish Air Force Historic Flight itself already lists Hechtel, Sanicole at
http://swafhf.se/Program/Program-12-9.html .

The Viggen and Saab Sk60 support will be arriving from Jersey, having displayed on this Channel Island.

For those interested:

According to http://www.sanicole.com/nederlands/inde ... &Itemid=98 the tickets for both the Sunset Airshow on Friday evening the 14th of September and the "normal" day show on the Sunday are now on sale as per 29 May.

For the Sunset Airshow you have to pre-book your tickets as there are only 4,000 available. This restriction does not apply to the "regular Sunday".

Page http://www.sanicole.com/nederlands/inde ... &Itemid=60 still hasn't been updated with the Saab AJS-37 Viggen, but if I am correct this event is also hosts the first visit to the Benelux by the Breitling DC-3 Dakota :?:

See http://airshows.be/viewtopic.php?p=108937#p108937 .

Yes, apart from the Saab Viggen now also the Saab J-29 Tunnan... 8)

http://www.sanicole.com/engels/ so far only lists the Viggen/"Thunderbolt", but that is set to change... :wink:

http://airshows.be/viewtopic.php?p=110004#p110004 states another surprise. USAF B-52 ? Or should that "5" be left out? :mrgreen:

It must be a "heavy one" though... :)

Since it doesn't state that the fax came from the USAF let's hope it's not some warbird B-25.

There's a B-52 in the area around then so it'll likely be that!

Hi all,

Sunday will be my first visit to Sanicole. With years of going to the Klu Open Dagen, the experience tells me that traffic sometimes can be a pain in the ass to get there. Early arrival to close proximity of the airfield but then getting stuck in traffic and not arriving on scene within the next two or three hours, missing a big part of the show. I know the organizations do their utmost best to arrange everything as good as possible but it can be frustrating. :|
So can anybody tell me how things are arranged at Sanicole? I read that parking will be opposite of the airfield, will it take a lot of time to get there? I know that you can't completely predict the incoming traffic, and it depends on how early/late you get there, but surely some of you will have stories about past experiences, which can help me with decide an ETD from home. Thanks in advance!

Grtz.
