The cheapest airshow?!? My wife decided we should take my new(er) car for a run, so I said ‘how about seeing if Headcorn is hosting parachutists today?’ For a cost of £2 car park, we got to see 3 lots of parachutists, 3 crazy wingwalkers and 2 Spitfire mini displays. My log was:
NH431 / G-CICK Spitfire EGLE Pitts BCXE Robin WWLK Boeing A75N BMCN C152 BMLX C150 PWBE DH82A ANMO / K4259 Tiger Moth CBAL PA28 GOHI C208 OODE SV4 ATWJ C172 STPK M108 DHDV Devon CBOZ YAK DDMV / 493209 AT6 BGHU / 115042 AT6 N355GW C172 N503DW CP10
If you haven’t been, there is plenty of parking alongside the runway, a cafe and a museum. Well worth a weekend visit.

Hi Guys,
Apologies for the delay, for Day 2 of our Germany trip, but here it is... Sadly, completing a full logs with visits to Finkenwerden or Toulouse tend to have an inbuilt delayed time fuse... However, here we go...
We started day two with a 90 minute drive to Wilhelmshaven where we collected these but half way there we saw this at a Police heliport near Oldenburg.
Oldenburg D-HPNF EC135 Police
Wilhelmshaven 25+74 (painted as 22+22) F-104G Starfighter (preserved and mounted near Navy base) Sadly saw this one when it was active at the Air Tatoo Greenham Common 1977... B-2027 B777F China Southern (OTT heading to STN) B-2437 B747-4F Suparna Airline (OTT heading East) D-EBIT PA-24 Comanche D-ECCQ Rallye D-ECOG PA-28 Arrow D-EEBM Robin D-ENGW Rallye D-EULB Jabiru D-HOAH EC145 D-IRVA Ce T303
We then drove for about another hour or so to Nordholz, the German Navy base of the P-3 Orion fleet, and had high hopes of seeing a few... All I can say is ‘high hopes’ has a lot to answer for... The following list also includes the aircraft at the bases Museum (**), which is well worth the time and effort.
Nordholz 20+64 F-104G Starfighter West German Air Force (Cockpit) ** 22+98 F-104G Starfighter German Navy ** 366 Sukhoi SU-22 M-4 German Air Force ** 388 Fouga Magister French AF (painted as SC+601) ** 43+55 Tornado IDS German Navy ** 45+30 Tornado IDS German Air Force ** 54+08 Pembroke West German Air Force ** 59+19 Do.28 Skyservant German Navy ** 59+22 Do.28 Skyservant German Navy ** 61+06 Atlantic German Navy ** 61+14 Atlantic German Navy ** 71+07 UH-1D German Air Force ** 78+16/D-HALB Sycamore German Air Force ** 79+55 NH-90 German Navy 79+56 NH-90 German Navy 90+77 P.149D German Air Force ** 94+01 Mil Mi-8 German Navy ** 94+14 Mil Mi-8 German Navy ** D-AXDB VFW-614 German Air Force ** D-EAVY PA-28 D-EDAK Ce172 D-ELDI PA-28 Dakota D-EOBW P.149D D-EPIT Ce172 D-EXCD SR-22 IN238 Sea Hawk Indian Navy (painted as RB+363) ** UA113 Gannet AS.4 German Navy **
So not one P-3 in sight. We also missed 4 stored Airbus’s due to a road being closed for what looked like road reconstruction- maybe the P-3’s were there as well...
From Nordholz we headed back towards Hamburg, or to be more precise Finkenwerden and the Airbus factory.
Finkenwerden D-AUAB A320N Kuwait Airways D-AUBV A320N Pegasus Airlines D-AVVB A320N Hong Kong Express D-AVVC A320N Loong Airlines D-AVVK A320N Indigo D-AVVL A320N Sky Airlines D-AVXC A321N China Southern D-AVXJ A321N Indigo D-AVXW A321N China Southern D-AVXX A321N All Nippon D-AVXZ A321N Lufthansa D-AVYB A321N Air Transat D-AVYG A321N China Southern D-AVYH A321N Wizz Air D-AVYO A321N Vietjet D-AVZN A321N Sichuan D-AVZP A321N Turkish Airlines D-AVZR A321N Air Astana D-AVZS A321N Jetstar D-AVZT A321 Delta D-AVZU A321N JetBlue D-AVZW A321N Sichuan D-AXAE A320N LATAM Brazil D-AXAF A320N Spring D-AXAL A320N Go Air D-AXAN A320N Juneyao D-AYAA A321N MEA D-AYAB A321N Pegasus D-AYAC A321N Turkish Airlines D-AYAD A321N Vietjet D-AYAF A321N Vietjet D-AYAJ A321N Cebu Pacific D-AYAL A321N China Southern D-AYAN A321N Turkish Airlines D-AZAA A321N China Southern D-AZAC A321N Delta D-AZAF A321N Air Busan D-AZAO A321N TAP (retro scheme) D-AZAU A321N Spring D-EHID Aquila AT01 D-IKGT Premier 1 (overflew) F-WWAV A380 Emirates F-WWSO A380 Emirates VT-IHY A320 Indigo VT-ISE A320N Indigo VT-IUU A321N Indigo VT-IUX A321N Indigo VT-IUY A321N Indigo VT-TNZ A320N Vistara So, although we didn’t actually get airside this trip, it didn't turn out too bad...
Final stop, Hamburg and our flight home. D-HKMG Squirrel TC-FHM A320 Freebird UK-001 B787 Uzbekistan D-AXAO A321 China Southern (overflew to XFW) D-ETST Ce182 D-EGTD Ce182 D-KESS SF-25 D-ECWQ Ce172 10+03 A350 German Air Force UR-KEK Bell 505 VP-CEF Honda Jet 3DC-SDF A340 Govt of Swaziland D-EITB SR-22 G-EUPD A319 BA (chariot home)
Heathrow PR-XTD A350 LATAM
Thats it Boys. Probably last overseas trip for a long, long time....
Bill
EDIT:
If anyone would like the C/N’s for each frame, I do have them....

What started as another rather barren day in the skies over Aldershot got a bit more exciting from mid afternoon with four PA28s G-BICW, JJAN, BEMW, *CDMA; Falc 50 M-CICO; PC12 G-ERGP. ADSB exchange showed M-CICO went into Blackbushe & the PC12 was i/b Fairoaks

Three pots and a scrape yesterday from home plus a pair of Apaches whilst driving back from Bicester
LZ-TYR - B737 Scrape heading for Shannon I think HK-5353 - A320 Viva Air Colombia, delivery flight ex TLS, passed to my east heading NNW D-AFAL - GLEX N651MP - GLF6
I had to make a quick drive to Bicester to see a customer, was coming back and was close to Weston-on-the-Green airfield when two Apaches went over at around 2,000ft. Pulled over to switch the VR on my phone on and was delighted to see ZJ218 and JZ224, both Wattisham based and both needed.
