I just heard it on the news today - Red Flag's back at Nellis Very Happy ! I'll be working on my car this weekend (I've been putting off doing the brakes for too long Wink ) but I'll most likely make it out to watch the jets and listen in on my radio scanner Cool .

Without getting into anything sensitive, is there anything special to look at this year? Any strange foreign jets or rare items like B-2s coming into town for some gambling and fighting out on the Ranges?

Thanks in advance for your replies and I hope everyone coming to town has a good time - Viva Las Vegas Thumb !

If you look around the net you can find the list of participant's in a couple different places ..

There isn't anything but US assest's listed for the first period and I think the exotic and forgein aircraft have already made there appearance the first flag held this year ..

The IAF was slated to come with there F-16's but for obvious reason's I do not think they will be there ...

Thanks for the replies Smile !

I figured you guys might not be able to talk much, but I figured it might be worth a shot Wink . I completely forgot to check www.dreamlandresort.com Doh .

Oh yeah, I figured Elvis might be back at Nellis for Flag - it's just a short hop down from Groom to Nellis by saucer Laughing !
