Luchtmacht dagen Gilze-Rijen

Recommended Posts

A bit dated, I forgot to upload any photo's from my second visit to Holland this year.

 

Anyway seven intrepid travellers arranged to visit the above event, travelling through the night from the UK to arrive at Gilze-Rijen at breakfast time, spend the full day at the show and then drive back to the UK !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Here's some of what we saw.......

Those of you who went to LIMA 2009 will have seen the unusual combination of a RSiAF Apache displaying with a F-16, well the Dutch appear to have copied the act ..........
