Dear oh dear, another mention of Newark… :D:D:D

How do you think (if it all comes to fruition) you would get it there? Dismantling and then road it over?

LOL.

Actually, I have seen a number of extremely worrying posts by spotters on the Mil Spotters Forum board where it was reported that the Red Arrows had sent up nine Hawks on the Saturday (err no, there were only 8) and that the Belgian AF had sent an A340 (err, again no, it was an A330). Oh yes, and a common one seemed to be that there was a Wasp over the other side (err, again no, the AACHF sent a Scout and an Alouette).

Are today’s “spotters” lacking in visual observation skills?

You obviously didn’t make it round the corner to the Alpha dispersal where there were two Spang F-16s, a Ramstein C-130J, a 100 ARW KC-135R, an E-3 and an Offutt RC-135, so there was USAF participation, albeit static.

Also here (and open to the public) were an AAC Apache and a RAF Puma and there was a rather rare AAC Islander T.3 in the main static lineup.

Yes, seen from afar (a bus actually) on the way in

I see there are three of them at Northolt now and interestingly one of used to be owned and registered to Selex who make a wide variety of electronic sensors. Read into that what you like..

The Turkish Stars team have arrived (hopefully with the same crazy commentator from past Fairford shows)

Isn’t the Andover XS641?
