Anyone going to Dubai Airshow? I'm pretty sure there'll be some of the usual suspects in attendance.....

It was announced at the Press launch today.

But Zeke is due to fly at Nellis for Aviation Nation 13-15th Nov and of course DXB is 15-19th Nov so does Nellis lose out (unlikley) or will a.nother be flying a non standard display or its like the Paris appearance!

Looks like Nellis is losing out according to the ACC schedule updated today :sad:

However, it looks like a Phantom will be it's replacement , at least as part of the Heritage Flight :yahoo:

Apparently the RAF are sending a Typhoon over for the show. Don't know if that means an RAF pilot or if BAe will send a pilot over.
Cheers
