Hi Oswcar,

Don't know but I expect some ANG C-130J of some from 86AW. The Belgian flew last year but with the party at Melsbroek the same weekend I don't know wether they will show. Perhaps some German C-160D's....

Greetings,

Henk

Belgian AF replied that no 15w/20sm C-130H will be available for the AMJ due to their Open Door.

Most likely the Poland AF, RAF and USAF will send a C-130, a German C-160; just like last years and perhaps one or two extra's.
Groeten,
Ron

The French possibly bring a transport? That would be a first. But welcome nonetheless!!

Next years Market Garden memorial should be a big one, according to this. I remember the drone of 48 Allison T56 engines in 1994 at Deelen. They were attached to 12 RAF Hercs doing the para drop over de Ginkelse Heide.
Answers will be questioned.....

I think you mean the 21st. Usually there is one drop in the morning with departures around 1000LT, and another drop in the afternoon. But I don't have a clue yet what the ETD's or ETA's will be this year.
