Obviously another F-16AM got the „Have Glass“ colour scheme, it is E-007.

Obviously another F-16AM got the „Have Glass“ colour scheme, it is E-007.

Correct, so far already three F-16s received the new paintjob. E-005, E-007 and E-011.
Maybe some more will receive the new colours.

After two Danish air space violations by the Russian Air Force Denmark reacted immediately and Danish Fighter Wing at Skrydstrup deployed two of it‘s „Moon Beam“ QRA force, F-16AM E-190 and F-16BM ET-208 in the morning of 12.6. to Bornholm‘s Airport Rønne.

Noted today on 8.7. taking off from 9.45 to 10.15h were the following F-16AM/BM of Fighter Wing:

E-024, E-597, E-598, E-603, E-608, E-610, ET-197 and ET-199 plus "Moon Beam" (QRA) E-607 and ET-208 on a "Tango Scramble".

The second mission took off very early (as common) from 12.50 to 13.00h and consisted of:

E-024, E-598, E-603, E-608, E-610, ET-197, ET199 and ET-614 plus "Moon Beam" on another second "Tango Scramble" consisted of E-189 and ET-208.

Just after 13.00h F-16AM E-599 came back from a visit elsewhere.

Flying one mission was Skrydstrup Stn. Flt T-17 T-426 with white fin in "Baby Blue" colours. Also flying was an unidentified EH-101 Mk.512 Merlin of Esk 722.

After the last aircraft landed around 14.35h the runway fire engines and FSO quickly came back and five minutes later a "Alpha Scramble" happened with E-601 and E-607 at 14.55h and making it a busy day for the QRA-Force and an interesting day for every spotter as well!

The main runway had WIP and so 10R/28L was in use. During the Danish holidays Danish Fighter Wing brought to the air 23 missions with 14 different F-16!

[pjotrtje]

Nice! I count (quickly…) 17 F-16s?

[Herby]

I still count and saw 14 different F-16.

[Buccaneer S.2B]

Nice report & score !

The days on which the Danish Display F-16 will be flown in 2021. Most if not all will be performed by E-191 „Dannebrog“, if serviceable:

Translated in German:

Schaut nach oben - wir trainieren weiter für die diesjährigen Airshows

Bei ′′ Athens Airshow ′′ in Griechenland, 4/9.

Til ′′ Gedenktag feiert das 80-jährige Jubiläum von 2/5 SQN Ile-de-France ′′ i Frankrig den 14/10:

Training findet innerhalb der normalen Arbeitszeit statt und hat eine Dauer von ca. 10 Minuten.

Aufgrund der geringen Höhe und Nutzung von Nachbrenner sind Demonstrationsflüge sowohl in der Flugstation als auch im Umland sehr lustig. Um die Gene für unsere Bürger vor Ort zu begrenzen, haben wir uns entschieden, das notwendige Training auf die drei Flugstationen in Jütland zu verteilen. Die Initiative hat sowohl in Aalborg als auch in Karup einen großen Jubel, wo viele Bürgerinnen und Bürger die faszinierende Leistung erlebt haben.

FAKTEN
Der dänische Demonstrationsflug für F-16 Solo-Display ist für verschiedene Veranstaltungen im Dänemark und im Ausland erforderlich. 2021 zum Auftakt von sechs offiziellen Veranstaltungen angeboten, bei denen COVID-19 leider drei um diese Zeit abgesagt hat.
