Cascais portugal F-16A on display

Post by Frank Mink »

Dear all,
Today a F-16A was assembled at centre square in Cascais city, just west of Lisbon.
I don’t know its identity or how long it will stay there.
I just got this info from a local.

Greetz,

In town for the Festival Militar, October 5 to 7 (5th is holiday here). So a good bet is that it will stay until Monday or Tuesday.
I haven't seen pictures of it, but I am pretty sure it is the 15100 which is used as the travelling exhibit by the Portuguese Air Force. It shows up all over the country at many events. Often together with an Alouette, though I think this time it is alone.
On the 5th at 17h00 there will also be some demonstrations, including a flyby of F-16s (4?) and a SAR demonstration, probably with a EH.101.
