Hi all,
a bit later than planned, but here is an overview of what I think could be seen at this year’s ILA.
The list would not be possible without all Your help, so many thanks again to Andy, Brian, Charles, Darren, Dennis, Dougie, Edward, Ian, Jan-Pieter, Jeff, Jerry, Keith, Kevin, Leon, Marijn, Nigel, Otger, Rik, rj, Uli, Wolfgang and many others!
Sequence is serial, colourscheme, c/n etc., built date where known, type, unit. Everything was read off or proved by photos, if mentioned (not including ILA show numbers). If no details are given, access was not allowed. All aircraft were present for all days, unless noted.
FSM, mock-ups or whatever You want to call them, are not given.

As always, I am happy to hear from anybody for corrections / updates. Does anybody know the French military registration of the presumably "new" falcon 900 (c/n from plate)? And is 84+59 on 26.04. photo-proof?
Best regards
Johannes
