oops, yeah, sorry, forgot to mention a few, but I was thinking about orders that still need to happen, so Italy, Spain and Germany already have the Typhoon and I wasn't sure about Austria, I thought the deal wasn't complete yet.

thx for the link

I guess that Saudi Arabia is untill now the only one who has a real contract for the Typhoon. May I mention that the word Eurofighter isn't correct anymore. the official name is Typhoon.

The MiG-29 OVT's sound isn't different from the standard MiG-29, don't find much WOW about it, I mean, not more WOW than lets say some F-16 engine noise, second: I think they can do more with that thing in the display.

Well done Fabke, My impression of KB: HOT!, my friend measured 38° with his GSM. But sometimes a little bit low on action. But that was already know in advance since it wasn't a real spottersday.
