Waar moet/kun je parkeren als de parkeerplaats bij de bult vol is? (wat volgende week zeer waarschijnlijk is)

Volgens Ter Horst-Delstra kan het ongeluk zijn gebeurd op een moment dat het toestel laag vloog: ,,Maar dit soort gebeurtenissen zijn heel incidenteel.

Re: KNTD/Pt Mugu Aug 2022 MIL/Gray Flag + civvies

Wow, some exercise going on there!

I wonder why the marketing dept of Phoenix Air thought it would be a good idea to put some hippie patterns on that EMB120... :confie:

Re: New future transport aircraft.

The Swedish Tp84s already are the oldest C-130s in Europe. Romanian C-130B's are even older. In addition: in June it was reported that Sweden would purchase C-130J's. I assume this will still go ahead, because 18 years is a big gap to bridge and that new European transport for sure won't be availab...

Re: C-141B Starlifter in a striking camouflage scheme

Btw, while searching for some background information about this color scheme, I found this other unique C-141 camo:

Presumably 140 EAW (Akrotiri)

Did anyone read off the E-7 that took part in the morning mission on the 29th ("media" day)?

Re: New F-35 in Europe?

I fail to understand the (strategic) rationale behind basing USAF F-35's in the UK, with NATO's borders to Putin's Russia well out of range. Would make much more sense to have them in mainland Europe...?

Zagreb-Pleso spotter's pass?

Hi,

In one of the older posts on this forum I have read something about a spotter's pass that is needed/recommended if you plan to hang around Zagreb-Pleso. Does any of you know if this indeed the case and if so, where you can get one?

Nice log, although it seems that the local F-16's were not very active?

Re: Question: Aggressor colourschemes

The purpose of dissimilar air combat training is that you learn how to fight against an opponent that acts and looks different than what you are used to. An F-5 in banana peel colors is definitely not something that you run into everyday...

Re: Vervanging F-16's

Uhm, als deze systemen inderdaad ongeschikt zijn, kunnen we dan concluderen dat de velden momenteel niet veilig zijn voor F-35 operaties?
