It's still Schonefeld and their stand at ILA assures Brandenburg will open April 2020

Bad news from Berlin. The CH-53K left for Holzdorf.

That was a bit of a bummer

Noted all the static and flight line east on Saturday as per the brilliant list posted on scramble and touchdown . The only difference being that 31+16 is now in static and 31+17 is on the flight line and flew in the afternoon.

I have a list from my photos of the 19 aircraft parade finale on Saturday which I can post later after a bevy.

The Saturday afternoon demos

31+17,31+11 EF2000
46+23,45+77 Tornado

Parade
10+27 edit
45+77,46+23
31+17,31+11

54+11 A400M
45+00,45+09 Tornado

50+38 C-160D

83+07 Lynx

Edit 84+73 CH-53G (edit for typos)
78+25,79+13 NH90
74+63,74+16 Tiger

76+11,76+13,76+10,76+09 H145

The Sunday Lunchtime special forces demo as viewed from the Civil terminal viewing area consisted of:

1 X CH-53G
2 X NH90
2 X Tiger
4 x H145

1 X C-160D

If anyone can point me in the direction of the serials in due course I would be very grateful

Here's what I made them from very poor shots.

Tiger 74+19
Tiger 74+63

NH90 79+02
NH90 78+25

CH53 84+73

C160 50+83

No luck with any of the H145's. Will check again when out of the sunshine tomorrow.

Slogen51, make what you want of this. In the final 19 aircraft flypast I read 4 H145's off as:

76+09
76+10
76+11
76+13

All the other choppers were the same as earlier so a good chance they are the same H145's.

Thank you very much

I needed 50+83

In fact I went back for the final parade and logged 50+83 and 79+02 - very enjoyable 2 hours

Shame (for me) that CH-53G 84+59 didn't appear at the weekend

Were you there when they towed the F-35s to a new position , awesome - apparently they leave Monday

The final parade on Sunday consisted of:
76+09 , 76+13, 76+10, 76+11 H145 (same four all weekend)
78+25 and 79+02 NH90
84+73 CH-53G
74+63 and 74+19 Tigre

54+09 A400M LTG62
45+00 and 46+11 Tornado TLG 33

50+83 C160D (LTG 63?)

10+27 A310
31+11 and 30+95 Typhoons TLG 74
46+23 and 45+77 Tornado TLG 51

83+07 Lynx

For the record a Spanish A400M turned up Monday morning as i was going to tegel, T23-01 according to adsbexchange but I haven't seen confirmation
