Also interesting is the fact that Singaporese A-4 det from Cazaux decided to send aircraft again to an airshow, as this was forbidden for a couple of years AFAIK

For Rochefort, the Runway is a 13-31 , with the public zone on the east of the runway: that means the sun will be in front of you all day long, with complete backlit for the planes.

In addition, on the last airshow which took place on 2006, in front of the public zone, there was a 2m high fence :evil: :
