very nice but you think is that a real bombs? the f16 really hurl bombs on the targets or the explosion is control from far? i don't know but the explosions are very small,the aircrafts flying to low and i did no see any bomb on the air,,,when aircraft release bombs from this high you must see the bombs ! and you must see parts of the ground in the air, i so movie with the israeli F16I in a show with bombs without explosive in the bombs, and the impact was more impressive but it's still nice.

the f 16 dind trow those bombs it just fly over the bombs where in the ground

The whole airfield attack included: 10 F-16's, 1 KDC-10 tanker, 2 Apaches, 1 Chinook & 2Cougars. Due to maintainance and missions abroad there where only a few helicopters. I have seen them doing it with 16 F-16's and over 12 helikopters, including airborne troops being landed by helikopter and C-130H-30. So this year was a little meagre in comparison.

Thats right, and I think this was a poor base attack, no flares form F-16's, only 5 helicopters, On Gilze Rijen 2005 were all AH-64D Apaches from RNLAF , 10 F-16's, 1 C-130, and more then 10 CH-47D, en Cougars with the Army in them. Thats way better then this.

You are right Mitchell the number of aircraft was a disappointment. Lets see what they make of it this year ;-)
