Gents, does anybody know for sure whether Dijon is currently closed for repairs? I had intended stopping off there on the way to Payerne but will need to re-think my plans if that is the case. All and any information gratefully received. This NOTAM seems to confirm it : B2180/14 NOTAMN Q) LFEE/QFAX...

I have the same antenna (though a Diamond branded version) and it receives all aviation VHF and UHF frequencies I've tried it on fine which includes frequencies as low as 118Mhz at least.

The Hercules shot is of interest in particular. Is it one of the 5 Hercs that got damaged by the hailstorm at Kandahar?

It's a Boeing 757 indeed. Scramble has it first noted in the database in January of last year.

A very almost non-existent update. The static is going to be more sparse than ever i feel. It isn't however the smallest static we have seen though. Including the Japanese KC-767A (which looks unlikely to attend now) we have a static total of 93 which just about passes the number seen in 2011 But a...

Tbh and frank and Iam sure I will have my critics,I really don't know what all the fuss is about for this yea's RIAT!! Sure the lightning is "hopefully"attending on the back of Government requesting it attend shows this year as a face saving PR campaign( and tax payer is paying for this),...

Take with a pinch of salt until more information is available.

Considering one caught fire at Eglin today I hope they're still coming, Russ!

Have a look here: http://www.defensie.nl/onderwerpen/luch ... ikbaarheid (or if you don't speak Dutch, here http://www.defensie.nl/english/topics/o ... rce/access)

The KLu still thinks they're coming as the BBMF is in the airshow program.

Most other news sites say it can, and will be, repaired.

Looks like it. I hope you do realize that all of these have been photoshopped and that no T-50s have actually been painted in a desert scheme.

That's superb Dan!

Very nice Mike. Do you also have some normal grey examples from your visit to update this topic with?

Lovely shots!

Rich Pittman uses the 70-300L. You can see some of his shots here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=55588

Will do, thanks for the addy.

XL563 is currently for sale. Please send me a PM if interested and I will forward the owner's details. If not sold XL563 could well end up being scrapped.

Another horrible update/downgrade then. As someone who travels to RIAT to see military aircraft you rarely see at other places there really isn't much left anymore. Civies do nothing for me (and don't belong at 'the world's biggest military airshow') and if I wanted warbirds I'd attend a Duxford sho...

Here's one I did a few years ago:

Love the Phantom shots in particular Emin! Heard a rumour about the THK having retired the recently modernized RF-4E/TM Işık and F-4E/TM Simsek, do you have any info on that?

There will be a spottersday at Kleine Brogel on September 14th according to this post in Dutch on Scramble: http://forum.scramble.nl/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=95958
Quite a few of the displaying aircraft usually fly from there. For more info have a look at http://www.spottersday.be/

Assuming you mean the 2013 edition, it's been released yes.
