the teletext message translates roughly into what was already discussed in this thread: 2 F-16's out of Leeuwarden were scrambled to intercept a helicopter that was flying without comms over the southwestern part of Holland. Overhead Almere one of the F-16's (or both) went supersonic. Apparently several windows in (my home city) Almere were blown to bits by the bang. :shock: My windows weren't, though :wink:

Oh well, how else to put some action in an otherwise rather dull sunday-afternoon 8) ... These Alpha-scrambles ARE getting more and more expensive, however :roll:

All posts on this now moved here.

Edit:
Om e.e.a. leesbaar te houden verzoek ik iedereen om zelfs bij een Scramble in het ter zake doende forum te posten (dus niet in Schiphol-movements voor een knal boven Woerden bv. :wink: ) en in de gaten te houden waar het in het Engels moet.


Dank!

Erik

I was taking a walk and saw them fly overhead Den Dolder back to the north again, about 15 minutes ago. Also heard the sonic boom here.

So many people complaining of a sonic boom.

Used to hear `m at least once a week when the 32th was still flying Phantoms.

I just hate it that i missed the booomboooom cos i was in Deventer instead of Amersfoort.
