Scramble Messageboard

If thought that Boeing cancelled their participation because they believe that the Super Hornet is overqualified and therefor not interesting for the Swiss. It also costs a lot of money for the manufacturer just to run such a month of tests.

Yes, I hope they chose the Rafale M. Can those big birds fit in the caverns anyway?

But I'm afraid that they will also choose for the Gripen. Which is not bad, but still......love the Rafale!

Hi Dick,

I enjoyed them very much! Great topic and great pictures. To bad you ran out of them. Wish I was able to upload such pics!

Many, many thanks for sharing them.

Best regards,

Wow, nice pics. Especially those old ones.
I wouldn't mind to see the pics of that F-102 and Vigilante as well!

Isn't that the Danish Airforce? Out of my head........Kongelige Danske Flygforsvaret.......or something like that?

Hi,

I wonder if our airforce has plans to replace the PC-7's with this new one. There was a PC-21 at our air show last year.

Only one soldier who happened to walk with his german shepherd in side the fence ga...

Yep, seen her return late in the afternoon. Time is correct.!

Are you sure about the time Rob? The C-17 77174 that landed at Spang at 13.52 came out of the direction of Ramstein and orbited the field one time before landing at SP. Maybe it also flew overhead Ramstein and is this the one you have seen!

Hi Rob, We paid a visit to Ramstein later in the afternoon after Spangdahlem and noticed the following C-17's. I will post the full log later today; 50105,10197,00534 Charleston 44138 March 66157,66159 Travis 44132 McGuire 3114 Miss Ang. Maybe it is of some help for you. I don't think that there wer...

The Dover C-17 was the 77174. This one arrived at 13.52. Another Dover C-17 arrived one hour later at 15.05. This one is the 77177.

The C-130 was still standing at the airport this parked. Parked on the other side of the runway.
