It's a pity their new date now clashes with Waddington...

Dutch F-16 flying (if they can log enough training before the season starts )
and their belgian counterparts are also a safe guess.
Suisse F-18
RAF Hawk
Jordanian Falcons

[SquAdmin]

Does anyone know more details about the Galeb? Is it mil or civilian? (probably the latter, but who knows...)

[ehusmann]

It says (C) after the Galeb so.....
There are a few flying in Serbia with civil regi.

Erwin

[SquAdmin]

Hmm, so C means civilian... That actually makes sense.

I'm glad my holiday starts tomorrow, I definitely need it

[ozhazo]

Can anyone tell me how to reach this show using public transport (as I don't have a car)? I couldn't find any information on the airshow website regarding public transport access.

[Chrisse]

In the past, they ran a bus service from Leuven for shows at Beauvechain. I don't know whether they'll do that again this year though, but given that in recent years, they made an effort to make the base accessible (even for Florennes in 2008!), I think the odds are fairly favourable.

Worst case scenario, say they don't run that service: the station of Heverlee should be no further than 1.5 kilometers from the Heverlee parking, or you can take a bus (I think line 4) from Leuven to get even closer to that parking. If they don't announce anything closer to the event, I'd be happy to write that precisely. let's just wait a little longer to see what happens.

The RAF Tucano display is one to watch this 2010 season. Look at the picture on
