The past two days, a Danish business group visited the Arnhem region. Since landing at Terlet was not really an option, they flew with an ATR 72-500 from Alsie Express to Twente Airport. Yesterday evening, the group departed again with the Mermaid6423 to Billund. Below are some pictures I took, I ho...

During Kingsday I chose to cross the border and drive the small distance to Nordhorn and enjoy the beautiful weather at the Nordhorn Range. That week Nordhorn hosted a JTAC exercise during which also Smokey SAMs were used. This attracted several Eurofighters from both Laage and Nörvenich, as well as...

Wanneer ik het filmpje zo zie, dan ben ik bang dat de kleuren van de romp net zo gaan worden als bij de Q-283. Dat is dan dus grijs ipv bare metal. Dan had je dus beter geen restauratie kunnen doen.

Last summer I received an invitation to visit the 2° Reparto Volo of the Polizia di Stato at Malpensa Airport. This unit is equipped with the AB.212, P.68 and UH-139. Despite the bad weather, I was able to shoot some nice pics during a sunny spell of just 5 minutes. A full report about this visit ca...

Last autumn I paid a visit to Bückeburg and must say that it is a very nice place to spend a day at the fence. There is plenty of action with a great variety.

Volgens mij hardstikke nep. Ziet eruit alsof het plaatjes uit een display zijn die tegen een andere achtergrond zijn geplakt; de hoeken komen totaal niet overeen.

Last Tuesday, the second to last Lufthansa Boeing 747-400 departed from Twente Airport as flight LH9871 to Frankfurt. The nice thing about this flight is that this Boeing will not fly to the American desert to be scrapped, but that the D-ABVX will be put back into service after having been parked he...

Yesterday Air Mauritius A340-300 3B-NBE made her final landing at Twente Airport, where she will be dismantled. For now she was parked next to her sister 3B-NBD, that arrived last week.

I have a question that somebody over here might have an answer to.
Is it in Portugal allowed to carry and use a radio scanner?
