Hopefully an Alouette on display. I've seen it moving on the slopes.
Pity, the statics will be placed in a tent. I'd rather had one outside to take a decent picture of it.

Still absolutely zero news on the Luchtmachtdagen so far, I know they usually leave it late announcing aircraft, but surely they've never been this quiet?! Is there even a website?

Post by Nielis »

Thats a very good way to start!!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the organisers are able to persuade the French Air Force to send over a pair of Mirage F-1's :P

Greek A-7s would be nice as they retire this year.

Some more helo's would be nice too (besides the standard German BO-105). RAF Chinooks for instance, or RDAF Lynxes.

Nothing of that for the time being. Ospreys are tasked for operational duties (we did everything possible to make it happen...)and the Hellenic AF is sending the F16 Demo. Chinook involved in their homebase familiday in the same weekend.....MIG 29's are more likely.....
