Re: China 2018 Zuhhai

Also for the airshow itself, they have now brought online a more western friendly website where tickets can be purchased and it includes the trade days as well. m This makes things so much easier as I dont have to deal with the language barriers and all the other related hassles of having a physical...

Re: China 2018 Zuhhai

I checked and yes it looks like I have to actually get into Zhuhai to buy the tickets from the Guangdong something vendor at the main transit terminal that is attached with the Macau border and it is a 80,000 per day limit for availability. Not sure if that many people actually show up to the show o...

Re: China 2018 Zuhhai

I think I will have to bring a wad of cash and just walk up to the airshow gates at ZHU airport on a trade day to buy on the spot..
The website they have is quite terrible with nearly nothing that works in terms of links.

Re: China 2018 Zuhhai

I myself will be applying for a visa this weekend or Monday, debating a single or a multiple entry visa so I can also visit HK and Macau.. Though the single visa will probably be cheaper and will allow me to stay at the mainland such as Zhuhai for several days on end without issue. I just dont like ...

Re: China 2018 Zuhhai

^^Many thanks too as I am also planning to go to Zhuhai for the airshow, I would like to go on the exhibition days if possible to avoid the large public crowds, I guess it is very hard to get tickets unless I am a part of the industry? Maybe I can try and come in as a freelance western media photogr...

Re: Radom Air Show 2018 (100th Anniversary of Polish Air For

Hmm I actually forgotten about that and I was there and took pictures too of that Tiger. If it weren't for the weather, the huge crowds that showed up and the jet doing a fast pass with a topside bank even a slight one, it would have made for a more memorable experience. The thick vapor trails and c...

Re: Radom Air Show 2018 (100th Anniversary of Polish Air For

I guess I can live with that.. May keep Poland open for next year once the issues are resolved and the rest of the soviet legends are back up again, unless they all get quickly retired.. Packing up to hit across the pond tonight, With stops in Montreal, and Iceland so I am travelling a great deal of...

Re: Radom Air Show 2018 (100th Anniversary of Polish Air For

Also does Radom have Uber or car2go?
Thank you for the responses so far, the good tolerance from the authorities makes it really really attractive and that too will make up quite well.
Otherwise I may look to take the bus to the southside and camp at a nice spot near the bus stop there.

Re: Radom Air Show 2018 (100th Anniversary of Polish Air For

The P38 lightning will be a decent consolation, the US fast jets if there is one doing an air demo rather than a pass will help, or if it is a B2 Spirit doing some topside passes maybe in formation with the polish team or a Flanker even.. that would make up for the Migs and other Su cancelling out. ...

Re: Radom Air Show 2018 (100th Anniversary of Polish Air For

Ugh, it is going to take a miracle to get the soviet goodies back up in the air Even the flypast is now a 737Max instead of a 787.. Man so much for a centenary celebration this year. I think they need to do an encore airshow next year and make it up.. The JF17 Thunder will be the one that will now e...

Re: Radom Air Show 2018 (100th Anniversary of Polish Air For

^ Those are valid points, I guess it just might not meant to have been for this year for the Migs.. Something like an ejection seat issue is pretty serious and likely difficult to fix since it is tied to the very survival of a pilot. The absense of Front line premier Polish and the Slovak as well as...

Re: Was the RCAF Hornet really that bad?

SO I just saw the RCAF Demo in Rocky Mountain House yesterday, and I would agree with the naysayers this time around. Their performance was lackluster and too much time spent away re positioning and off crowd maneuvers not to mention a distant display. One of the worst in years, and I am a Canadian ...

Re: Radom Air Show 2018 (100th Anniversary of Polish Air For

Do you think there will be a positive change in the next month where one or two of the acts may infact be cleared to attend or perform at Radom?
I am looking at the Polish groundings in particular.
And has there been a history of groundings for the Migs and Sukhois years ago?

These groundings and cancellations of 21/22/25/29 doesn't sit well with me, especially after I will be spending around $2000 to do this trip with all my flights an...
