New Danish f16 scheme will debut at Farnborough 😭😭😭 Are you sure? The way I read the website, the Team are making their Farnborough debut, not that the livery will make its’ debut at the Show. https://www.air-shows.org.uk/2024/06/airshow-news-royal-danish-air-force-to-debut-at-farnborough-internati...

Looking great so far, hope a mig-29, f-4 & f-22 turns up. If so I’d say it’ll be one hell of a show!

Nighthawk Demo self confirmed according to their socials !!!

Edit : alas it too be a spoof after some deep digging, but their has been rumours of it making an appearance since the US revised their testing and training unit with them ?

Re: USAF is "planning" to reactivate 20-25 Cold War era airbases in Europe (Rumour)

Upper Heyford, Bentwaters, Sculthorpe - all stuff that dreams are made of. Indeed, Upper Heyford is gradually disappearing, the former domestic site is now largely demolished and there's new housing estates going up in their place.
