Scramble Messageboard

Just two photos to keep this topic from disappearing to page 10 and further! Bulgarian Su-25 arriving early morning on Friday, when many photographers were brought to the wrong side of the base. I took this shot while standing upright in an Ural-truck waiting for a ride to the right side of the base...

Thanks jp 74 and Poljot1. I should remember it next year! This show is not held every year, as far as I know. But there should be good spots at the fence to watch and shoot helicopters. And of course there are plenty of other interesting airports and airbases in this area. For instance, I saw a C-17...

On a scorching hot 21 July, the l’école de l’aviation légère de l’armée de Terre (EALAT) held an open day at its home base Le Luc. As I was on vacation only 75 km away in Nice, this was an opportunity not to be missed. Most helicopters on static were open to the public, only the NH90s and Tigres wer...

Thanks Erwin. I missed both helicopters completely and did not see them arrive. Unfortunatly. I saw in the live stream that the NH90 is in the static show now.

Coke-trails. Ik ruik (snif) een nieuwe complottheorie.

Finnaly the Chinese have copied the.... Buccaneer!

Er staat overigens een korte video op de website van de Telegraaf, die uit de cockpit van 1 van de F-16's is gemaakt. Misschien levert dat nog wat op?

Sean, these are breathtaking, especially the FT6s. We saw them in Albania, but you can't beat a moving one.
