Not likely. But there are some great people working on our behalf to get the nicest possible setup for the Open Days.

It’s all the time listed as static in the app, only on the website it’s stated as flying.

From Scramble FB page:

"The two aircraft are scheduled to arrive on Wednesday 12 June 2019 at 19:00 hrs local time. The Lightning IIs earmarked for the Atlantic crossing are reported to be F-002 (323rd Test & Evaluation Squadron) and F-008 (308th FS 'Emerals Knights'). Of course weather conditions and availability for crossing the Atlantic are subject to this."
Cheers,

According to a post on Facebook (Nationaal Militair Museum), the D-5803 (Dual Starfighter) is on a lorry on it's way to Volkel for the LMD.

Apparently the reason of the cancellation of the Polish SU-22 is because they have been grounded.
See https://www.fightercontrol.co.uk/forum/ ... &start=700
So it seems like we won't be getting a Mig-29 or SU-22 from Poland as I have heard that the Migs are still grounded and the SU-22s are now grounded too

That's possible yes. Inform yourself about road closures and parking spots those days.
