Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Yep thats the one. The Commisary is the former Super Market of the 32nd FS.

The Fouga is DHJA F-GSHG (ex G-FUGA) C/N 45. It was repaired for static after its belly landing a few months ago and exchanged with the MLM. It's painted in (more-or-less) Belgian markings because KLU pilots used to train in Brustem AB, Belgium on Fouga.

Here are a few pics of yellow D-8062. Don't realy like the painting on the fuselage, but do like the wings though. Seems to be a birds eye view of EHSB;

Been there today and noticed that the F-100 was back on his original place, the D-8062 was in front of the F-86K, no sign of the D-8098 and also the CM170 couldn't be seen outside. The large hall was closed due to the opening of a new exhibition.
Does anyone know for sure what will happen to the D-8098? Went by Deelen today, only to find out it was recently removed from there and taken to the MLM, so I just missed it - twice in one day... :shock:

Have again been to the MLM but found no trace - again - of CM170 "MT-51" (F-GSHG)...., can anyone confirm it's real former military identity ?? Is it a Belgium Magister as assumed on several sites, or indeed an AdlA aircraft with serial "045"??

I believe the Magister is put on storage at the airbase.

In my opinion it can't be a Belgian example because these examples runs from MT01 cn 258 till MT45 cn 327. Later followed by a batch of 5 examples from the Luftwaffe with the cn's 145, 203, 204, 222 and 224. The Fouga from the MLM has cn 045. On page 2 I post a picture with the french serial F-GSHG. According to the Scramble database the Fouga serial/ cn 45 was exported to the UK as G-BSCT to Aces High Ltd on 20/03/1990. They sold the Fouga as G-FUGA on 12/04/1990 to Roylair Services Ltd. Roylair used it till 18/08/1998 when they sell it to Dutch Historic Jet Association BV. It stays in the UK register as G-FUGA till 18/08/1998. At this date it was exported to France as F-GSHG. It stays till the day of today in the French register.

Then the french should clear-up their register, is this one had a landing-mishap at De Kooy more than 15 months ago.
