I have heard some of the fighters will be parked on the old German runway, that is the track from the tower towards the 06-24.
But that was a rumour so we will wait and see.
Two years ago a lot of civil aircraft were parked over there.

Seems number of static versus number of flying displays is somewhat out of balance, but as long as all aircraft are displayed in a decent photographer friendly way, I don't mind, as long as they don't pile them up or place the fences right under the noses....

Hi Polleke, out of balance.....If you wish we can cancel some of the static aircraft to get it more IN balance.......Regarding the Harriers. If we are running out of static parking spots, the other Harriers will be parked north of the displayline.

Or, Ed, you could park the Harriers at the grass, just like at Texel, that is the way you do it, right!

Keep them coming!

How about the other way around - get more flying aircraft ?? :lol:

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining - on the contrary, but seems to me you might run out of properly visible parking spots ? But then again, guess I need to leave that up to you pro's and just enjoy the scene while I'm there....

Just park the other Harriers under the wings of the KC135, plenty of room there.

Of course, and departure from the grass as the flying display at saturday draws to a close. Gives special pictures, just like at Texel, but that was not in this millenium. ( I thought '95 or '98 ) :lol:
