Today, the Flying Legends team made it’s first flight in 3 months to celebrate the new year. They made a trip from Kortrijk-Wevelgem (EBKT) to Ursel (EBUL). In this wintermonths, and a temprature of 2°Celcius, it was bit cold. But if you love vintage planes, even the freezing cold can’t stop you! 😎
Planes included today where:
Morane Saulnier MS317 OO-MOR
Boeing PT17 Stearman OO-USN
DH82a Tiger Moth OO-TGM
Also joining the formation was Extraviation’s Stampe SV4b
The Stampe SV4d OO-SVT was also planned to join the Formation, but a last minute technical fault prevented the Stampe to fly.
I got the chance to take some (I hope) nice pics and here they come:

Sadly, this SV4d from the Flying Legends team wouldn’t start.
