The original date doing the rounds for the 5 Indian Mirage was 27/2 - I guess that still stands?

They won't do it in one leg today will they?

Also heard other rumours of them arriving on the 1st, along with the others which makes sense.

That's is great to hear and it keeps us motivated to keep the website updated and publish new articles every month! Pieter, you are doing a great job with the SIS. Love that you put the Martians news on it!

We are working on some substantial changes on the scramble.nl website which will go live soon. Meanwhile updating the Orbat pages with new pictures so never a dull moment. Hope to add some new Indian Mirage 2000 and Saudi Typhoon pictures the those orbats!

Confirmed that the WAVE carpark will be open from Wednesday with a burger van (they've bought the one from Coningsby) and toilets.

Be useful to know what time it is planned to be open.

Indians have flown to Saudi this weekend.

Rumours are to Greece next then Waddo, so Tuesday/Weds is more likely.

That's great news about the WAVE car park being open, have the new owners of the lease bought the Coningsby burger van, Mike?

That's correct Mike.

Same two ladies are running the van that did the cafe.

I've had this from Christine to share:

Hoped to open 7.30 am once marhallers for the car park have arrived.

Cars only in car park, no vans.

No dogs. No stoves.

Please don't block the entrance Monday and Tuesday as deliveries will be taking place.

I'm just the messenger.

Do we know why stoves are not permitted?

Thanks.
