663, read off by myself.
The Mirage that flew the demo (at least on Friday) was the 11 unfortunately. Like many others I need 1..... But a successfull show it was in my opinion!
So at both days Frecce flew with codes 1-10 and 0 was the spare.
Who can confirm that Mirage 2000c 1/5-OJ was saturday at the far end near the Royal Navy Merlin, while 11/5-OF was towed to the north east side a few hours before it's display?
have the Frecce been read off both days? I remember one time at Volkel the tail numbers got switched after the arrival (eye withnessed from a distance). So this could have happened this weekend as well....

Erik,
I spent about two hours 1130/1330 on a distance of 50 meters from the Royal Navy Merlin at the end of the runaway, I didn't see any Mirage 2000 at that part of the flightline.
ps i might have overseen it.

Erik means in front of the shelter behind the f-16 line. i see in my pics that he was there at 13:23 and later at 13:39 it was gone, so i think it is pulled back in the shelter, and it is likely that it is the 1 because the 11 was towed to the other side and he flew later, but you never can tell for sure.
I can't read the code on my pic because there was a van in front off it.
Erik it was 100% the 11/5-OF, because i looked at my pics and saw that the 1 and the 11 are different! the 1 have a black section on top off his tail and the one in front off the shelter did not had a black section on top off his tail snorry for you

Correct there !!!
I was at the flightline most of the days and the 1/5-OF even had a small nose-art.
J-201 F-16AM 322 Sqn RNLAF #
[/quote]Could this one also be J-001, I went to the flightlines after the show and did photograph the J-001 and the J-201 was not seen by me????[/quote]
Maarten, Both were present, J-001 on the flightline, J-201 operated out of it's shelter(together wih J-064). This shelter was situated just behind the two apaches .
Dennisblade also mentiones J-516 on the base attack on wednesday 18 juni, don't see this one anywhere on friday/saturday. Was it present or misread and was this one of the KLu spare F-16's on the flightline or not?
