Scramble Magazine 480 - May 2019 Vorige editie

Issue 480 is a jubilee issue, as it marks forty years since Scramble started. In 1979 it was nothing more than a few stenciled black and white copies without any pictures held together by a staple. Today Scramble consist of more than 100 full colour pages full with pictures and – of course – serial numbers and registrations.
As a treat our jubilee edition is 128 pages thick, with quite a few interesting articles! The first article is a report of the five day visit of the USS John C. Stennis to the port of Marseille.
The second article covers the HAI HELI-EXPO, which was held from 23 till 27 March in Atlanta (GA). The third article is a historic article, because this month we commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Berlin airlift, which ended on 12 May 1949.
The fourth and last article is written by Ivan Voukadinov and is a report about the 115th Fighter Wing and its 176th Fighter Squadron, known as the “Badger Air Militia” based at Dane County Regional Airport / Truax Field (WI). Furthermore all regular sections – with the exception of the Showreports - are included in this Month’s issue.
