Qatar national Day Practice 11.12.17

Post by TAFFEVANS » Mon Dec 11, 2017 9:06 pm

That time of the Year again:
2 Full Displays/Flypasts between 1530-1615 local today. Disappointed that the newly delivered Super Mushtaks plus the old Commandos failed to show up. There is a NOTAM saying that from 11-14 & 16-17 Dec 1200-1315UTC there will be a possible practice, these times/dates are very flexible! From previous experience I very much doubt there will be a practice every day, possibly the 15th then the Day itself. Orientation of the Display was different to the last 5 years with the Mirage/A Jets going S-N, PC-21/C-17/C-130 the usual NE-SW & the Rotary doing the same as the Mirage/A Jets
Any way here goes, in order:
1st time I've seen them with AAR Probes
1st wave - 3 ship Mirage QA93/86/97
Image
2nd wave - 3 ship Mirage QA85/90/91
Image
Alpha Jet QA51/54/55
Image
C-17A's 'MAE & MAA
Image
Image
Image
C-130J-30 213:MAJ
Image
PC-21's QA361/362/363/364/365/366/367/368/369/370/373
Image
Rotary - AW139 QA75/76 - SA342 QA03/06/07/08/09/13

Awesome to see. The refuelling probes are a pretty new addition.
