Open days RNLAF, Volkel 19 june 2009

Dear all,

Except for a 2 minute shower, we had good weather all day. Unfortunately during the Vulcan display it was a bit cloudy. So the Vulcan pics are not up to the standard on this forum. However it’s evidence that this beautiful aircraft made it to Holland and was the star of the show.

It was a good show. Could have done with less diplay teams though. They saved the Red Arrows till the end, which is fair for the others.

I haven’t seen the Wright Flyer, probably because I was far from the centre line (close to the Vulcan ;)).

The NH90 was from Italy. It flew after the Turkish Stars (which did a great job too) and after the show.

It was a good show, wasn’t it? Did you get to see the Wright Flyer replica fly? I heard the commentator go completely insane at the sight, but saw nothing. And where did that NH-90 come from? I did not see it at the show.
