Guess your guess is correct: first rehearsal just overflew my office (I only need to turn my head from my computer screen to the window to see them. I love this job ): what seemed to be the C-160 (military twin prop) was following a C-130. A pity the A400 does not participate to the rehearsal, though ... will try to have my camera for the second rehearsal on Thursday.

Hi everyone, I'm new to the list and am UK based but travel into Europe quite a bit, managed a couple of visits to Brussels and Wevelgem on the way back. Main highlight was the journey home just north of Brussels I saw the practise flypast as follows;

wave 1:

2 x AW109, 1 x Sea King, 1 x a.n.other

wave 2:

1 emb121, 2 x Alpha Jets, 2 x F16

wave 3:

1 x C130 (CH-12), 1 x C160 (GAF), 1 x Da.20 (CM-01) & 1 x Da.900

Sadly was driving home and was unable to read any off - any tie ups on these ? I thought the 4th chopper was an Alouette 3, but I'm probably wrong (driving and spotting don't mix)
