[Hurricane]

[S&B extra]

The Klu wanted to cancel the Luchtmachtdagen 2011 but was told by the minister van Defensie Hans Hillen they are not to be cancelled.

Responding to the query about T-255, it may be in servce after all (for some time) since the two KDC-10s will be on the ground for soem time during their cockpit upgrade.

The static display of the German Do 228 has been taken off the official website, so not sure if that one's still coming.

[michel N]

The German Do-228 and P-3 have been confirmed for more airshows, and cancelled again (Zeltweg, Fairford), so I am afraid they won't show up at Leeuwarden.

[Borygo]

There are rumors about Polish MiG-29 participation.

There are rumors about Polish MiG-29 participation.

Correct: it is most likely flying and probably a SU22 static

Strong rumours
- C-130 RJAF ( Static,because it's the final show of the RJF in Europe)

Up till now the Jordanian Hercs didn't attend the final European show of the Falcons, they dropped in a few days after it was finished to pick them up. They also need some time to prepare the Extras for shipping them back home, so I think they will not be at LWD during the show.

[Nielis]

Oke, I was hoping for a jordanian Herc maybe it is just wishfull thinking
