the Chief of Staff for the air force has cancelled Tanagra show altogether due to having to commit his manpower to other national duties ie post Fire clean up.

Jaap where did you get that? The official word (http://www.haf.gr" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) currently is that the 10th & 11th of November scaled down show still stands. I hope you are not right this time...

What I heard from the PR this week is that the Patron days are still on.
Bases open from 9am till 4pm 8 till 11 November.
And small scale show during that weekend at Tanagra.

We were notified by a British group (BAES) they cancelled their trip after some high level meetings.
Note that the air show at Tanagra was in addition to the annual Air Force events on 'all' air bases.

Thanks Jaap. I'll go about asking and will let you know if I find anything on this. Right now however I'd consider this to be a rumour.

We regret to inform you, it is now official. :cry: Jaap was, after all, right.
