Thanks Rik, I am sure you are right, I paid more attention to what I thought were the con nos than to the a/c itself. 044 & 046 were 100% Spanish, funny, I thought they were T.19... but dismissed that as haze/old age! 046 was "normal" ie dark grey, but had "SAR" in bold on the nose, and various bump...

Top secret, but closer to my office than yours!

Not happy about the weather, but it's CAVOK at dest!!

Hello Oscar,

Do you have the serials for the 12 F-16s?

I assume you refer to the 212s, which I poled off last winter by walking right round the place, starting at the train station, and heading towards the Aero Club, then continuing clockwise past the Metro sidings, from where you get a good view of the entire storage area. If you mean the 127s in the m...

I guess these could be connected to the F-16s due over LLLL at 15.10 yesterday (Friday) afternoon, and the 'tanker 240 which landed at the same time! Serials anyone?

Was anyone at Dijon early on Sunday and saw a KC-135/E3F display, followed by an F-18? Serials please .......

....and a nice surprise when 62-1835 pitched up in Ben Gurion last week!

Hey Frank, why don´t you and Johhny just put the two 500mm lenses in series to create a 1000mm and you can dispense with all the Extenders altogether

IDFAF B-707 (ser. 264?) recovered to LLBG at 17.00 today, Thursday ..
....... from Lajes!

Scroll down in their English site, and the Tiger Meet at FBW 32 ist cancelled, and abgesagt in Deutsch!!

No guys, don't get me wrong, I logged all the Dinky Toys (even potted a KLu one) and the double whup whup (looked better when it visited my local jetport a few years ago, got a snap of it somewhere) but I fully understand the lack of interest in such hallowed company! Just thought you might have mis...

Erwin, and 5,000 Scotsmen, you are almost certainly correct on the E163 rather than E168, but you know how it is, I was getting so excited .....

By the way, you Dutch guys don't bother logging your own aircraft, or your Flamant neighbours'? Or is it just not done to mention Vipers at a MiG base?

Pieter and Erwin, many thanks!

Vulture1, are you the Scotsman of that ilk in question?

No one has mentioned the beautiful PdeF Alfafa Jets! From left to right, or was it right to left they were E numbers: 135, 158, 75, 41, 117, 130, 165, 168, 162 & 31. Also: has anyone actually confirmed the second Mi-8 under camo netting in the base museum? There was some confusion on the Mi-8 situat...
