Considering all Oregon F-15Cs were grounded last month due to structural issues, it might have something to do with thatBunzing wrote:Which is...?wamovements wrote:84-0021 will receive same treatment as 0106 at EGUL.erik_kamphuis wrote:F-15 106 arrived today 16.30h at EHLW

Re: Frisian Flag 2018
Lijkt me niet, aangezien de Italiaan niet geweest is, de Amerikaan geen enkele missie heeft gevlogen en de Fransoos ook al dagen weg is, terwijl de missies 'gewoon' 2x per dag volledig werden afgewerkt (behalve vandaag, vanwege weersomstandigheden).jeroenvn wrote:Heeft dit nog gevolgen voor de Frisian Flag?

Re: Frisian Flag 2018
Just my two cents: it might well be linked to the fact that this bird landed short of runway 27 (in the grass) upon arrival on thursday

Wasn't the MiG29 designed to be able operate from unpaved surfaces?

Re: Frisian Flag 2018
It was. But I doubt if they still use that capacity much in Poland, and if the airframe is still up to that trick after all these years. The early landing might also have been a case of a technical issue instead of pilot error, as most people who were there seem to believe; that would warrant further investigation. There's an interesting picture of the incident on milspotters, though

The Polish F-16’s and MiG’s couldn’t be seen. Except for one MiG who was standing on the Marssum side. Someone for the serial of this bird?witje wrote:What will be visible from outside? Will try my luck on saturday.

It was the 89, the 59 and 11 were flying at the same time.
Testing the right engine I guess because it was with full afterburner several times.
