Ysterplaat Airshow -- 21-25 September 2010

In 2008 the Mirage III got klapped by a seagull, so we didn't get to see it.
That's my favourite jet in the whole of the New South africa.

Glen Warden piloted the "black widow" at the Swartkop show earlier this month so I'm sure you guys will see it this time. There was also a cheetah in that airshow so I'm sure you guys are in for some good stuff.

Some shots of ZU-DME (the black widow): http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.search?regsearch=ZU-DME

You capetonians seem to have truly stolen AAD dammit! Was hoping to come down to that neck of the woods to it this year for AAD but aint gonna happen by the looks of it.
 
ZU-DME is a magic machine...

Credit must go to everyone who keeps that beauty flying... I love seeing/hearing it...
 
ha ha ha no probs. i hear they been warming up their engines since Dawn showed her crack this morning.

just thought i would show you guys what you can see from my roof.

parking is $5 and for an extra $5 i will point in the general direction of our fallen towers.
 
Apparently this is the last AAD airshow to be held in Cape Town. They've been upgrading Waterkloof AFB in Pretoria, and it's almost complete - so come 2012, it'll move back to Pretoria. :(
 
Figure I can do a bit of boasting... hehe

Have my Media pass ready and waiting :) Will post pics here on the forum.
