Historic Jet Airshow Information

[mrjake2002]

Hey all. Just to let you know the historic jet airshow will be held at LFML (Marseille) on the 5th of May. This will be at approx 5:00 GMT (So as to not interfere with the weekly tour at 8:00 pm). If anyone else wants to fly post in this thread. Rules and further info will be posted here soon.

Hopefully going to my first airshow this year on 5th may...so I can't come

I can make it sooner or later if too many people can't be there on the 5th. What airshow is it?

[Isak922]

5PM GMT would be 12:00PM EST? I might be a tad late, but if you'll allow it, I can do an SR-71 fly-by  8-)

[mrjake2002]

Yep... that would be great Isak922. I can put you near to the end if you wish.

[cspyro21]

Sounds good, I'll show in Ito's Vulcan then switch to Just Flight's model

Excellent. I'll be in the freeware Alphasim model  ;) http://www.simviation.com/fs2004military126.htm Towards the bottom

I'll fly the Canberra PR.9

Although, if Mic's wanting to fly the Canberra, I can always fly a different mark (T.17 or something).

The BBMF event at Duxford I'd guess.

So he is...

I'd like to fly a Vicker VC10. I know it's not an enitrely realistic choice but I think I manage a decent display without doing anything beyond the aircraft. It's a classic that deserves to be shown.

Apologies for the 8MB size, but it's the smallest equivalent I could find.

Filename - jbs_vc10.zip
I found it on avs*m at http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=62687, couldn't search it out on Simv...

If it's not a problem, I'd like to operate out of nearby LFMY for my display please (ie I go there the display before and takeoff to hold).

[mrjake2002]

Ok, heres the preliminary list (not in order) -

UK:
Sea Vixen - MrJake2002
Sea Hawk - MrJake2002
Vulcan - Cspyro21
Gnat - Jon Rose
Canberra - Tweek
VC10 - Heathaze

US:

Plus the debut of the new historic jet team!

Would be nice if someone flew the hunter and we got a couple more US aircraft but i think the list looks pretty good!

Yeah thats fine  8-). Can you land at LFML ok or is the runway too short? (I could put you first and you could take off from LFMY and land at LFML after the display)

[HawkerTempest5]

All being well I will be at Duxford so I can't make it but as I'm not on the program I guess that's OK.
