Not difficult what the source is: the RAF doesn't have a Harrier display and they're the only ones using a Gr7/9 :wink:

I can't find the type of harrier specified which will come, nor here and definately not on the KLu OD site yet.

So that's why I ask for a source.

But a GR.9 is nice on the static.
Cheers, Michel

I guess this year's theme 'INNOVATIE in mens en materieel' is pretty appropriate then :-)

Wouldn't the problem be a wellknown person working with computers for the RNLAF now preparing to win a third consecutive medal at the Olympics?

According to a spotter I spoke this morning at de Kooy, somebody working at Leeuwarden told him they were working on a B-1 static, another one flying and the good old BUFF in the flying to. Hope anything will materialise from this

Indeed 18 years ago... They were already in the air to perform at Boscombe Down, so it was easier to have them come over.

I think the last appearance of a B-1 at a KLu Open Day was Gilze 2002?

Why should I put this one in this topic and not in the participants, do you think? Yes, it sounds to great to be true, but I would not have any objections if they would make just one of these three.
