Evening,

Spent a fantastic 30 hrs here! Lots of Dakotas and hercules were flying around for flypasses, droppings etc. Had the pleasure on flying with them on Saturday afternoon as well. Here is a log. By far not complete (I think I missed 1 herc and 1 French Navy helicopter and 1 French Navy Falcon):
