Re: Serbia in recent times

I like the pic's from Batajnica, was it the Armed Forces Day in April. I was there, but did not get into the hangars. How did you manage to find Omladinskih Brigade and the G-4.

Re: International Air Tattoo 1987

I can well remember that show. Spent a long time with an antipodean. Got a glimpse of the last a/c as it landed, could see the nose - but the rest was a sea of spray. I though i was p****d.

Visited 16/9

Just to say, saw 10 Typhoons do a streamer take off, last 2 even had afterburner's on.
As for the mound, just some info - it's about 4-5 foot high now. Also the owner has put a piece of equipment across the entry - so no more parking there. Its a pity, but it is his land.

My favourite spot on Thistleton lane, by the Crash Gate - near the engine test bay. Got them coming and going in 21 or taxing off 03.
