Scramble Messageboard

Arriving at Charleroi (B) on Thursday 15th, around 15:15LT in landing order:
J-010 F-16AM NAF312 ("148FS" titles)
J-210 F-16BM NAF313
J-004 F-16AM NAF???
J-067 F-16BM NAF???

Anyone for the NAF callsigns on arrival?

Draken lost their ADAIR contract at Nellis this June (a one year extension was not executed by the USAF), so the F-16s are not needed now. Delay for one or two years could mean time to help Bulgaria with a stop-gap measure to start F-16 operations before their first 8 F-16Vs (8 ordered/8 options) wi...

D-106 and D-667 are listed on the Woensdrecht spotter user board as being at LCW 'wfu'. D-662 was there as well until mid-22 but no views recorded from that time on.

That's all.... it's perfetto Davide! Still in love with your poggio int the background with or without snow! Avanti

LUX voor een tankstop (Woensdrecht was te duur om af te toppen), daarna door naar Cairo voor een nachtstop en daarna naar NBO, de nieuwe homebase. Eigenaar kwam zelf het toestel afhalen. Was een delivery van ATS, niet Fokker. Mogelijk dat er nog meer F70 van hen die kant op gaan in dezelfde mooie kl...

Hmmm, didn't know that, thanks for the info. Interesting by the way, with next week Friday being the first media day... Where is that media day? Drachten; rumour US Army is leaving on the 10th keeps popping up, not confirmed but before media day AND EndEx 16 Nov at Valkenburg.... ? How does this wo...

N319 airborne 15.00 with 639 and a Dutch AH-64 as Guard11 formation

... and Q-31 was painted on the tail of first AH-64E at the roll-out so this seems to be correct

Already a few years after the controversial Austrian EF order it became apparent that the Tranche 1 models which they bought (less a/c and 2nd hand instead of new Tranche 2) would become obsolete. They simply could not be upgraded, see the fate of UK Tranche 1. So yes understandable that Austria is ...

Very good colors due to autumn trees. Remember driving through Finland on spotting trips noticing several highway strips; very efficient operational model. Sweden and Poland seem to hold on to this model as well.

AMI twitter feed mentions 4 Russian a/c chased away by AMI EF2000 when they entered Polish and Swedish FIR from Kaliningrad. Others also mention Danish F-16 assisted, but no info on Danish RDAF of MoD twitter channels or Swedish Forsvarmarkten regarding this incident https://twitter.com/ItalianAirFo...
