When ever we look back at the airshow it's quite simpel..........................  It was great.

The stars of the show ( to my opinion) where:
Greek AF F-4E
Egyptian AF trainer plane
RNZAF C-130
Austrian Saab Drakens
RNLAF base attack with everthing they had ( over 30 planes participated in this !!!)
IAC Beech 200 ( and thanks for the flash, Arthur :'>   )

And many many more highlights.

I realy hope Frank can upload some great pics as the man was there the whole day.

Hope to see more of you next year !!!

Hi Guinness,

Here are some of my favourite pictures from the big day........

Portugese AF F-16's departing on the Sunday

Yes, a very good show.  Also, don't forget those nice Turkish RF-4Es and the Austrian Skyvan.  The RNLAF Historic Flight and other older aircraft also put on very good displays.  

The Egyptian AF trainer was a Gomhouria Mk.8, which is a licence-built version of the German Bucker 181 Bestmann design. I see that it was collected again on Sunday by the C-130 which had brought it in during the week.

Hi Guys,

I waited around on the Sunday for the departures, I got class shots of the An-124 taking off..... I was on the centerline of the runway, outside the fence of course, until the cops moved us on!

I got shots of the Egyptian Hercules arriving and departing too, I'll add them all when I get the time.

Overall I've loads of class pics, I'll add them over the next few days & weeks.

I would also like to thank Guinness for his hospitality over the weekend, I really enjoyed my stay in Holland.


Regards,

Frank.
