I thought I would share some pictures of this fantastic little aircraft collection, which we visited on Friday. If you ever find yourself in Antwerp with a bit of time to kill this is well worthy of a visit.
They have a great collection of replica WW1 types, all of which are intended to fly
An original V1, with substantial remains of a second example and a V2
A really tidy little workshop
And most of the current airworthy fleet
They also have 2 Fouga Magisters, one of which is to fly very shortly.
Overall a great, friendly little museum, run by enthusiastic volunteers and well worth a visit. A highly recommended, little known gem.

Great stuff.
They should acquire one of those Stampe/SE.5a replicas from France to go with their WW1 line-up.

A superb museum! Indeed well worth the visit. The Fouga should fly tomorrow. It will be displayed at the Belgian Air Force days this coming weekend.
