Eizo: As it says on the site, its a list of invited countries, they have invited the French, and they have requested the Rafale display. Nothing seems to be confirmed yet.

So you reckon the J-10s and Russians aren't confirmed?... :whistle: The home team alone is enough to get me interested...

As it was announced with "cracking lineup invited", I thought the TO is not aware it is a real wishlist for Santa Claus. As Chrisse said: I could invite the Queen to my garden party, but I guess she won't come! :P

Glad I did not book. Compared to the prior list participations is really poor. Show should be done by Swifts only it looks like. :grin:

Indeed, can't believe the Chinese aren't turning up.... :sad: It's a bit of a trek to see an Orao or two...

Shame for you then the Mig corporation is sending another one, Mig-29M2, with an An-12 in support. You just can't get a break, can you?

Most likely no IAR99 from Romania. Sad news about the one who didn't make it :(
