Translation: The Russian Embassy (in Germany) has officially stated that the planned participation/flyby of a Tu95 ...

some bizzers remained unread, as I was near 36C practically all day and they landed on 36R/06 or took off from 09 and I saw them land or taxi way back in the distance; so: help much appreciated on these: (probably nothing spectacular, but for completeness' sake) Citation landing 1255 (after S5-BBD o...

2. Through the window of a building which is I think an annexe to the museum I saw Fokker Dr.1 replica (PH-DRI) & Nieuport 28 replica (PH-NIE). Behind them was what appeared to be another F.27 fuselage section, without a fin. Is this the remains of PH-NIV, please? Or maybe something else? 3. Inside...

Reading the 2nd part of your posting, I think you relate to the B-17? Now, somehow I dón't think Guiness is relating to the B-17... Just adding 2 and 2 together: Guiness being THE Irish beer (refreshes the parts other beers can't reach :wink: ), given Guiness' interest in Irish Aviation, his Irish ...

I've seen only once a S64F when driving by at the autostrada ...but it would be really nice to see a chopper like Bubba in the air! :shock: I've seen sister ship "748" (N173AC) in action last year over Corfu, Greece. It is a very impressive sight (and sound) and we were more than happy to have her ...

Re: some good old thunderstreak and thunderflash stuff

I must correct you when you talk of runway 24 : EHEH had two runways in use at the time : 08 and 26 and , later on , when the main-runway was not usable anymore the parallel taxi-track was used as 08 Right and 26 Left. :wink: Hans You're right, of course; got it mixed up with the 06/24 at nearby Sc...

Re: some good old thunderstreak and thunderflash stuff

Let's continue with this nice and tidy one : two Streaks , one asleep but the other one alert ! :?: Hans Hans, I don't think it is on alert, as I think Eindhoven's tasks (CAS and conventional bombing) didn't require QRA. Mickey I think Hans meant "alert" in the sense of "being awake" at this time; ...

Shouldn't there be 2 extra Belgian 104's there now instead of just one? I thought it where two CM-170,s ex Belgium AF. Almost correct: apart from F-104G's KG+101 and FX-52 (tiger c/s) that were on display during the airport days and that will be on the photocall, four more ex-military aircraft are ...

GPU and VP-BJD block a/c from DDA-side. But they DON'T block the view from the southern part of the fence :lol: The GPU is in the picture, but NOT blocking the aircraft!
