Re: Air force day 20/21 June 2014 RNLAF (luchtmachtdagen 201

With warm temperatures the aircraft wheels will melt into the tarmac
I could have (should have) guessed that! Makes sense actually. Thanks.

Re: Farewell Mirage F.1 Mont de Marsan 12./13. June 2014

That was 1980 and the name of the 1 hour documentaire is 'Orange est vert'. It was shot on Orange indeed, knew that! Didn't know it was shot in 80, for sure that wasn't when i watched it but thanks for the title, I'm gonna try and see if I can find it somewhere. I know I must have it on a betamax v...

Re: Farewell Mirage F.1 Mont de Marsan 12./13. June 2014

Excellent! Must have been over 30 years or so ago, but once I saw a documentary on a french F1 squadron, no clue anymore what exactly about, only know it ended with a (fake?) bird strike. Anyway, ever since been a fan of the aircraft. Something about it, shame to never see it again.

Re: Air force day 20/21 June 2014 RNLAF (luchtmachtdagen 201

Hi guys, something I haven't seen before, does anybody have a clue why a lot, if not all, static aircraft are parked on wooden planks? On grass I would understand, but parked on the RWY, why would they do that? Maybe the asphalt of the RWY is to rough for a parked ac?

Re: Koksijde 05/07/2011 Arrival day 2

Interesting turn in the topic, being more about whether the Thunderbirds are Go or not :) To me, I did drive 200km to go see especially them. Sure, I agree that at times you get bored stiff with the routines of the demo teams. Then again, that's probably what gets the large crowds to the field and t...

I'm searching of this serial, mentioned is 3E-KR and 3E-KA.
Who knows the right serial?
I've got exactly one picture of the SA.316, only one I didn't delete as it has the serial clearly on it: 3E-KR

Re: Rotterdam 8-3 C17

I just happened to pass the airfield yesterday on my way back home when I caught a glimpse of the C17. Passing 4 lanes in quite heavy traffic to get to the exit is quite the challenge I can tell you. Luckily though they just started taxiing out so I was able to drive alongside, get my camera ready a...

Wow, the "les" YPR-765 in the picture brings back memories. Had my training way back for miltary draft in such a vehicle, only then the Leopard 1v. Nice. And loving the pictures by all of you guys too of course :)
