Scramble Messageboard

Sorry to disappoint you, but the Belgian F-16 display won't be there, the poster on Flugzeugforum had simply misread the news on Milaviapress. Mickey will be in Sunderland that weekend.

Last I heard was that flights with C-130s are out of the question due to new regulations, but Im' not certain whether this is correct.

According to the official website, also a static German Do228.

Info is apparently incorrect, it should be September 14 according to base personnel.

According to Sanicole at Airshows.be, the Mirage 2000 will be displaying at Sanicole this summer.

RAF Merlin has cancelled due to unserviceability.

Some additional info: Both the Czech and Hungarian Hind will be displaying. The Hungarian Mi-17 will be in the static park, as will be a Royal Navy Lynx.

More participation details.

Most interesting new participants come from Slovenia (Cougar) and the US (Pave Low III) in my opinion.
