Waddington airshow 2nd July 2005 STATIC

[Fabke]

Had a great trip to the UK yesterday with members Djamald and Flyboytjen.

Not the best airshow I've ever seen at Waddington but still some great participants in the static such as the block 52 F16D of the Hellenic AF , Australian Blackhawk , Turkish F4's and off course the 3 Romanian Mig 21's ;D

Only problem was (again) the weather , very cloudy with only some sunny moments but temperatures were ok

Nice job, too bad about the bad static conditions (fences, background) but of course you can't help that. Under the conditions, you did a superb job!

How was the display itself? Perhaps I should consider going there next year?

[Djamald]

Strange,

I have a lot of pics from the same angle .
Anyway, we all had a great day. We bumped >:(underneath the Channel and we had a good spotting day.

I will post some of mine later today.

[Djamald]

This is how we started:






The bussiness end of the Greek F-16 Block 52




Is that the navigation pod of the Lantirn system underneath a Romanian Mig 21?

Cool shots, Djamald. Wow, a grey Nimrod, that looks nifty!

[Flyboytjen]

Hi guys,

Nice shots Fab & Djamald.
The weather conditions where indeed (again) bad.
I'll put some of my pics on-line in the coming days.

The day started sadly with a (little) accident at Calais (see the pic of Djamalds car), but after that we had a nice day at WD.
Not the best show I ever saw, but as on the static, also some nice flying displays like the Falcon 20 duo display - the Black Cats (duo Lynkx) - SU-26 Red Bulls - Fly By of that E3 together with the Nimrod and the amazing spectacular show of the RAF CH-47 Chinook ;D

Let U all now when my pics are on-line.....

Greetz,

Great pics indeed.

Too bad that this car accident occurred . There are better ways to start a trip to the UK.

These Greek F16's are really special .
