Scramble Messageboard

All pictures are with northern wind. Runway is almost north south and the best spot is on the east side because the aircraft bank more to the right in take-off to avoid chemical plant. But what me was told 90% off the time it is southern wind at Iwakuni and the other side is not this good :-( North...

On Feb 24th we noted E2C 165813 NF600 here, still with black tail

Also on Feb 24th C40 165830 was still noted.

Thanks Ronald for the info & pics. Looking forward to the rest. But what changed now?, where were you standing?? and what runway was in use?? Please clarify ... I believed only in the afternoon the sun was right ... :? Please check Google maps (via Scramble or something), there you see the new runw...

Hey, Just back from a wonderful Japan trip. In 10 days almost 4000 km. One of the bases we visited was MCAS Iwakuni. Since the new runway is in use the photo opportunities dramatically improved. Wow what a base. Only sad that the sun started shining after 1 o'clock and by that time the sun is not in...

Hi Paul, Great set of pictures ! The first time I see pictures from Iwakuni with the new runway being used. It looks like the photo opportunities significantly improved with possibilities to make also runwayshots. Do they use both runways now and with how many mm did you make the runwayshots ? What ...

Op 11 januari 's-avonds geeft het ballet, koor en orkest van het Russische leger een optreden in het Concertgebouw in Amsterdam.

Weet iemand of dit nog iets oplevert ? Toch redelijk veel mensen bij elkaar..

Just back from two days work after an enjoyable spotterday on monday. No time for some serious photoshop On sunday we went to Cambrai Niergnes for the airshow, at least we had better light conditions than monday and they did cut the grass before the runway !! http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i426...

Here a few pics from Ramstein in nice sunny weather and nice aircraft. On March 2 2 Wisconsin ANG KC135 and a KC10 arrived, they departed in the morning. This all in around 2 hours time..... http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i426/ronald888/scramble-rs2.jpg http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i426/...

I think we have to be careful to use scanner reports or Mode S reports for movements. Luckily I was at Ramstein, 2 WI ANG KC 135's were expected and 2 WI ANG KC135's arrived already at March 2 and were expected for take-off. We got a phonecall that the 00348 was heading towards Ramstein but for unkn...

[quote]I confirm you that most of Adla fighters and some helicopters were deployed to Creil AB last year. [quote="Ronaldsnl"] Thanks Tintin, Do you (or someone else on this forum) know something about the photopossibilities at Creil ? The Scramble airfield guide is not so clear about this. If I look...

As in past years, Creil AB should be used for many aircraft with arrival on the 13th

Hi TinTin,

I thought last year Evreux was used for participating a/c, for the fighters and Le Bourget for the Aeronavale helicpters.

Looking forward to hear from you.
