Belgian Air Component. Modest in size but excellent in quality. Always good to see them flying in the UK. Thanks for the video.

Hi Jim, I had the pleasure of discovering a ex Belgian air force Mirage 5BA in Poland museum in 2019, think they retired as soon as the F-16s started to arrive in Belgium around 1988. So it will be fascinating to follow the transition to F-35A over the next few years 🙂

Great video, the Belgian government decided to donate 30 F-16 to Ukraine this end of may. Starting with 2 this end of the year.

The A400M has a distinctive alluring sound when flying overhead at 25k' at power, climbing to it's intended cruise altitude.
