Is there someone with some experience on the Tours airshows in the past?

Are there some nice spots to take pictures? Every reaction is welcom.

What about spotting in the Tours area, is there anything else to see (military dump or W&R)??

Thanks in advance

Hi all,

here's a log of the arrival and spotter day.
We left Tours at 15:00 so we didn't see the planned Mirage 2000N and Awacs. The Alpha Jets near the shelters were behind the flightline. I gave them numbers to make sure I didn't mix up the groups, but these numbers do not correspond with the actual shelter numbers.

Hello,

Thanks for the info about the Alpha Jets in the shelter area,
but are you sure of E125/314-ZK?
Is this maybe the E125/314-LK?

Could you also pls check E12/314-LP as E12 is a CEV a/c and the previous 314-LP is the E129.

Regards,

Otger

Also near Alpha-Jet E160/314-UH were cockpits of a Jaguar (unmarked) and a Mirage marked 33-AI.
