CQWI

Post by venom » Mon Jun 24, 2013 9:39 am

Does anybody have any idea what's coming? I know there's Belgian F16s. Last year's line-up looked really good ;)

There's partially sighted and getting it right......... but let's not go there...... again :)

Anyway, I am personally unaware of anything confirmed other than Typhoons. Rumour has it that there MIGHT be F-16's (Belgian) and Mirage ((French) but don't know types).

Note: all rumours are to be taken as heresay until wheels hit the tarmac.

50p says it's a grey one (possibly with the odd dash of colour). Wow - this online gambling is addictive............

Are you meaning because I haven't put 1/6sqn ones, if so it's because this is for participants likely/rumoured to come to Lossie only. :)

Belgian F-16s and US F-15Es - July 2010
Swedish Gripens - October 2012.

Both were QWIC exercises.

That figure will probably include the based Gr4s as well. Would love to be wrong.
