Dutch Aviation MEDIA 2014 Exclusive publication

I9- ALONG THE TAXIWAY

For the enthousiasts of IAI planes: An extended view at the planes that return from their flight along the taxiway
So far along the taxiway. We'll finish our impressions with some flying images of participating aircraft.

I10- SEVERAL FLYING AIRCRAFT

Italy participated with the AMX, a 'golden oldie' but still useful for long(er) distance reconnaissance
The AMX will probably be followed by the Aermacchi M-346

Nice example of air-to-air refuelling three Ra'ams 
At some places the desert seems to be a 'wood' of masts, transmitting and especially receiving signals
.....here on top of the hills (upper left and down right)
The General Dynamics (now Lockheed Martin) F-16 Fighting Falcon is a single-engine multirole fighter aircraft.
Designed as an air superiority day fighter, which evolved into a successful all weather multirole aircraft.
Though this Fighting Falcon doesn't have to complain about the weather conditions.

The international VIP's and observers are flown back to probably Tel Aviv
Some aircraft fly their last missions like this Ra'am does...
....as well as this Italian Tornado....
....the Lakenheath Eagle...
.... and another IAI F-16...
Another participating aircraft was the Italian Eurofighter 'Typhoon'.

And this way we get to the end of our 'tour in images' of the first international 'Blue Flag' exercise 2013  
May Blue Flag contribute to stability and safety in the Middle East region !
Friend undoubtedly, and even his worst enemy shall (secretly) have to admit that Mr. Shimon  Peres is a statesman
of large format at all aspects. No-one will doubt that he wants peace, and the best for his country and people.
Off course one must admit that it will not be well understood by all parties unfortunately.
Though this man commands respect, in his journey to find peace at last.
Let's hope that his work will ever result in this peace.

   

With or without the help of kindhearted nations...... 
Israel is a nation that believes firm as a rock in its right of existance.
In this context a phrase came in my mind that I have ever read somewhere:
Don't worry America, Israel is right behind you ! Showing some self-confidence ?
A country which will never lose confidence in itself , not even if it concerns the last person.
