Er, of course. Thanks Joost.

It took 18L with 18C also in use, is this normal for PEK flights?

These fighters were on display complete with live pilots dres...

Hello Erik. I was there in late April and I didn't see a French Magister or any other storage aircraft outside, I think. New for me were a Transall (with a terribly placed information panel killing photos) and an Aussie C-47. There was also a Bo 105 hull near the righthand building. Some of the GDR ...

On Fri afternoon I noted the following landing at Cosford: 'TW536' Auster QQ100 A109 ETPS 1115 Bryza G-BHDZ Ce172 ZH750 Merlin RN G-BEOL Skyvan 'XW324' Jet Provost 'WG308' Chipmunk 'W9385' Hornet Moth '1365' (Portugal) Chipmunk 'ZZ165' Venture (motor glider) 'WD286' Chipmunk G-AGJG Dragon Rapide ZM3...

Sunday tickets are also sold out according to their website

There is a 'photocall' on Sat, but I don't have a ticket for that.

Surely there must be but I can find no information of any

Last year it was Fri and Sat.

I will fly to Birmingham on Fri morning, Onward transport by train and folding rental bike.

For those wanting to go - note that you must buy tickets in advance, and that supposedly they may run out.

Interesting, thanks Brize.

That looks very good indeed. Is this because of the RAF centennial, in other words, is there reason to believe this could largely come true?

RA-82081 confirmed on Rwy 18R.

Thanks Marcel. As far as I'm concerned, the Kienitzberg area is exactly were you want to be though, certainly with the 07s in use. So I found it rather strange that that area was open, that there was almost nobody there on Wednesday, and that the Germans were telling each other on Flugzeugforum that...

For those trying to make photos from the southside of the airport. All public roads leading to the fence are closed with some roadblocks mannen by police. Shots close to the final approach of 07r is possible. Views on static display are inpossible from here Can you be more specific? I was there on ...

Yes, Navy colours it is now.

Well, although this event is not one, I must say that this repaint is one of the positive recent indications that the Aviodrome does want to be an aviation museum (again) and not just an attraction park for kids.

Thanks.
