Great reports guys,we arrived at the show around 14.30 after St Dizier and were exploring the static when the pm demo started.
We identified Puma DAN/DBQ/DDT Gazelle GEV/GAP NH90 EAQ/EAR/EAX and Tigre BJM and maybe BJI were there any additions we missed?
Thanks,
Graham

Great log, many thanks!

You forgot two Puma's:
1128/DAN
1269/DDT

One of the two spare Gazelles which was read by you as GBT was read as GAT by us. No time to check it yet.

Regards, Paul
One Puma you do seem to missed, Chris is DBQ seen flying on multiple times during the day.

Still, one addition if I may: Gazelle 4053/GBE was in hangar 1 in the static area. It could easily be seen through the glassless window on the right.

Nothing to add to the logs already posted but does someone know the ID of the engineless Puma on the south-west side, and the Gazelle near it?

REQ can anyone confirm which NH90's flew in the morning of Sunday 2 July?

All

I read off EAW when it landed and saw one or possibly two depart by 10:30am that I did not read off.

Were they different? Or was it just EAW departing?

Cheers
John Fletcher

couple fly before I left.

EAX flew as a single ship in the first morning set-up, followed by EAR and EAQ in the second set piece of the morning. EAW didn't fly afaik, as it was on the static with EAJ.

Many thanks Frank for your reply.

Of course EAW was in the static, memory failure!

Approx when did EAR and EAQ fly?

Thanks
John

Sorry, I had to wait till I got home to check the times on my pictures. As it turns out, the sequence was a little bit different from what I remembered:

EAQ and EAR were the first Caïmans (Caïmen?? :wink: ), displaying between (around) 11:40-11:44 local time and then leaving the display area
EAX was displaying between (around) 11:52-11:57 lt and it then left the display area
EAQ and EAR returned around 12:02 and left the display area again around 12:06 lt

Hope this helps. Didn't take pictures of the first part of the afternoon wave because the helos were the same as in the one described above and it was much darker than during the late morning wave, so I can't help anyone with that.
