Hi all, as usual I came to post my highlights of the year. 2016 has been great with my first ever visits to Frisian Flag, EART, Anatolian Eagle and NATO Tiger Meet, coupled with visits to Swidwin and Malbork and my local airshow - Malta International Airshow :) Here are some highlights of my year :)...

Thanks All See you all over for the 25th anniversary next year!

Some images from last weekend's airshow in Malta :) It was a small show this year, but as usual full of quality :) https://c7.staticflickr.com/6/5675/29909979166_c8771b4213_b.jpg Malta International Airshow 2016 by Alistair Zammit , on Flickr https://c4.staticflickr.com/9/8448/29401053323_a8a1cdb783...

Thanks for your comments

After the Japanese Maritime Self Defense force that visited around two weeks ago with a seahawk, we were treated to these 4 rare beauties! https://c3.staticflickr.com/9/8479/29569153242_79e49f3aa2_b.jpg Malta Spotting 2016 by Alistair Zammit , on Flickr https://c5.staticflickr.com/9/8023/29644608396...

I will re confirm about that since that was what I was told. What I know is that there are not many left in service.

We were treated with a visit of two italian air force NH-500 rarities this morning :) Quiet special, considering they are on the brink of retirement! Enjoy :) https://c7.staticflickr.com/8/7341/27094461694_6ce34ce7a8_b.jpg Malta Spotting 2016 by Alistair Zammit , on Flickr https://c5.staticflickr.co...
