Hello everybody,

I'm planning a trip to Leeuwarden tomorrow to see the aircraft of Frisian Flag '10.
But due to the volcanic ash, does anybody has more news on flying activities tomorrow.(19/04/2010)
It's a three hour drive for me, so it would be very disappointing if planes didn't fly tomorrow.

Reactions more than welcome,
Buzzard

Don't count on it.

Don't count in it i would say. All commercial acft are still grounded till this evening and the vulcano is still active and with north-western wind now and the coming days I don't expect any flying activities Dutch bases tomorrow (only safety and emergency flights).

Can the participating planes be seen from the outside of the field?

Thanks in advance.

and are they going home at the 23rd?

...yes if the airspace is still closed by then, they will probably disassemble them and go home by lorry...

Gtz, Paul

[Kleintje Pils]

That would be great! Are they planning a spotters day for the bye bye party?

[DJdeRidder]

Anyone know what lorry's to expect? I know it's not sure yet, but if they get shipped by lorry could we expect some Willi Betz?

[Kleintje Pils]

I'm afraid I have to dissapoint you DJ, a company called van Wieren is specialized in this kind of transport out of Friesland, they have done this lately:
