Hi Remco,

sorry, no. I don't use a scanner and this log was from Monday, not today. Cool though, a Phantom at the Bakermat again!

Cheers,

Bart

Wittmund next week

Hello,

Can anybody tell me if there will be some interesting flying activity at Wittmund next week? Or will most aircraft be in the south because of the sky-patrolling during Euro 2008 championships?

Where can you take best pictures?

If you go next week to Wittmund, the following I have taken from flugzeugforum 26/6:

Ich war heute am Platz. Spotten direkt am Zaun wird bald nicht mehr möglich sein, da das ehem. Übungsgelände im Westen komplett umzäunt wird. Die Pfähle stehen bereits. Im Osten hat sich noch nichts getan, aber der Verlauf des neuen Zauns ist schon markiert. Der Abstand zur Bahn wird dann ca. 40 - 50 m mehr sein. Mit entsprechender Brennweite ist dann nur Fotografieren vom Lärmschutzwall aus möglich, da das Gras im Weg ist Spotterunfreundlicher geht es nicht! Als Alternative bleibt dann nur der Anflug, der aber glücklicherweise von beiden Seiten gut zugänglich ist. Naja, mal schauen, was die Zukunft bringt. Vielleicht bleibt ja in der Mitte der Bahn eine Stelle zugänglich. Nutzt die Zeit, in der noch kein Draht gespannt ist und macht eure Bilder

They are builing a new fence on the soutside of the base. The west side the new fence is already there (d.d July 2)...

Regards

Ronald

That's right. I was there too yesterday (for the first time) and was a little disappointed.
There still was no new fence on the east end, but we were sent away by the military police after half an hour. No discussion: we were not allowed to come close to the base. We left and went to the west side.
On the west end you can only take pictures along the overrun area of the runway, so well before touchdown point. The area along the runway is fenced-off. After a few hours a guard told us to stop taking pictures and said he would call the Polizei. Luckily we were not bothered again, at least not until 14.15 hrs when we left ('de buit was binnen').
We had a great day with 14 F-4s flying and 33 degrees C.

HAF F-4E?

Post by Lifeliner 3 »

Don't know if this is the right place on the forum to ask this question, but anyhow:
in the SIS updates section, it is mentioned that a HAF F-4E is making a tankstop on Friday 4 and Monday 7 July. What I would like to know: What is it's destination? Florennes Air Show?? (I thought Corsairs were confirmed for Florennes, not a Phantom.... :roll: ) .

Thanks,
Lifeliner
