Re: Prestwick this morning...
What a shame. Most of the folk at Prestwick will share info , however, there are a few who think that keeping it to themselves and depriving others is the appropriate thing to do. Especially if they are not local! This sort of action is not unusual as, being an enthusiast for over 50 years and in Ai...

Re: LUKE AFB OPEN DAYS
Thanks for the info. Have been to the area before but was wondering how bad it was during the OPEN DAYS display.

LUKE AFB OPEN DAYS
Looking for a bit of information re the above. Have heard that the parking and then bussing to the show is HORRENDOUS. Was thinking about arriving on the Sunday, in the vicinity of LUKE about 9am, staying until 2pm, then returning to PHX for a 8.20 flight back to the U.K. Does this plan sound feasib...

Re: SWISS participation
Totally agree with what you say re the word "team" however as I said in my post, it may be a singleton or, as I saw in Payerne 2014, the SWISS HORNET TEAM consisted of a HORNET and a COUGAR displaying TOGETHER. Could we be so lucky? Likely not.

SWISS participation
OOOPs.......it was the schedule for the HORNET TEAM not the F5s.......sorry if it got folk excited! It actually says " the Swiss Hornet display team" so I suppose its just the one F18 or will it be the F18 and a hell that does a dual display?

Re: Any Super Hornet's due in Europe?
To commemorate 100 years of Finnish independence there is a display in Helsinki on Friday 9thjune. Now the Finns need a replacement for their old F18s so BAe sent a Typhoon to the display for obvious reasons. I presume Boeing didn't want to be outdone so they have sent 2 of the newer versions of the...
