Roger, the FW 190 and Spitfire are not coming!
Thanks, we are now going to Antwerp, the Stampe Meet. Hope to see the 190 later in the season.

Is it still expected to be at the Albert show saturday? Only going there for the 190, so if it is cancelled, I dont have to drive a 800 km round trip.
BW Roger
And the 190 now has a period painted tail with swastika. Are they going to make it to the Albert airshow?
BW Roger
And will it remain in Dutch livery?

Never understood why no Bristol Freighter or Carvair were ever safed. in the UK/Europe. Great aircraft. BW Roger
It’s made of wood, but it’s nicely done having seen it in the flesh myself that day too. You can only tell by standing very close to it, although the wingtipbows are square.
The D XXI (correct me if I’m wrong) was built using an original steel frame as reference but the frame for this project is completely new as were the wings (built by Fokker, so does that make it a late prodcution item?). The G1 really looks great but there are plans to reconstruct one to production standaard (even flying conditon?). There are also rumours about reconstructing a Fokker T V twin-engined bomber. It seems that historic aviation is really picking up over here (finally). A Fokker C X is also in an advanced reconstruction state.Cheers

And a Koolhoven FK-51, a DH-9 and some more I don’t think it is wise to tell yet. That T V is interesting, didn’t know that project was in the planning:D:diablo::p
Last year it was moved to another location. It can’t be seen anymore from the other side. BW Roger
Yes, it is still there, in a bad but complete enough condition. BW Roger
If you do a search at Google Earth, you will see the Viscount at the airport. It is a bit hard to find, as it is not near the terminal. I missed it in last May, as I was told it was scrapped. But on take off, I could see it in perfect condition. BW Roger
It will be the 32nd anniversary. “Tenerife” was my first job as a 17 year old one. I am now writing a book on the crash. BW Roger
There is a Viscount at Tenerife Norte. BW Roger
Both pilots killed in the crash. BW Roger
It was very close to the airport. BW Roger
