The Casa is painted all white, just the Spanish flag and 230 taped on.

Does anyone know what's happened to the Hurjet?

The show website still has it as static (it was originally due to fly) but I haven't seen any confirmation that it's actually there!

The Italian Eurofighters are near the Qatari pair (Gulfstream and 787). I didn’t see the Slovak Blackhawk today so assume that it’s over by the hangars somewhere or at the back of one of the halls

Actually just found them - the two Typhoons are visible ' under' the Air India A350 when viewed from the Dairy gate

When the A350 departs ( on Wednesday?) the Italian typhoons should be much easier from the east end

OK, thanks.

It should be flying tomorrow, just after the B-52 flypast, so I'll try and catch it then.

There's a map of the static display available to download here:

Looks like the UH-60M is rather well hidden amongst the chalets.

Thanks that is really useful

You can see the AH-64E tail on near the Chinook from the dairy gate area ( I thought it was the US Army UH-60M so i will recheck my pictures later)

Unfortunately vegetarian has grown up in front of the multi storey carpark but you can still get some additional views up there between the trees

The whole place is quite awkward from the outside

The AH-64E is behind the nose of the CH-47 and the US UH-60 behind the tail end when viewed from the northside, if that helps.
