Holland Fly-in at Rotterdam, June 3rd, 1978

Good afternoon,

I am not sure if this is the correct spot for this report, but as it mentions airshows I give it a go.

On June 3rd, 1978, a Fly-in for light aircraft was organized at Rotterdam airport. Here are a few negative scans of this event. I hope you like them.

It was a delightful event-organised by the NVAV to persuade the officials that homebuilding/home-maintenance was safe. We were able to land on the grass & arrive non-radio. All quite safely. Yes i took a plane but very few Brits got there because of fog in the channel.
