The units of the helicopters came from a database.
If they are wrong, please let me know.

Hi,
Are you sure about this one?
I remember seeing a bright round roundel underneath the right wing, almost like the Dutch Air Force roundel.
I took a picture and I'll try to check tonight when I get back home.

Hi,
I would like to ask a question concerning the Mirages in the hangars.
When we left the base after the spottersday on Monday, there was one Mirage 2000 clearly visible just behind the German Learjet.
Can anyone tell me which one this was?
Regards,
jan

Hi Jan,
I photographed the hangars from the car park (with permission of the two guards standing there) so I will check it for you or put the pictures on scramble. (I'm at work now so later)
regards,

And for the PdF:
Alpha Jet E EPAA20.300 E143/2 demo c/s T09:20
Alpha Jet E EPAA20.300 E156/8 demo c/s T09:20
These two are not correct, maybe typo? They are E163/2 and E158/8 (photoproof from landing on 15th)
