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.

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.

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.
