Summer holiday

It’s the summer holiday. 6 weeks of time where kids don’t have to do anything… Well, just having a holiday. That’s all.
But it’s also time to do things which have never done before. What about an Airshow?

I’m a great aviation fan, besides all the birdy friends, dogs, puppies, sandpipers and anything else, and try to visit airbases as much as possible.
Someday my 8-year old son mentioned, that after showing him some pictures of recent airbase visits, he wished he was there with me.
What a chance he had on his first day together with his dad, during this holiday.
An airshow, obviously, was planned for August 4th, just an hour and a half away!!

Did you ever hear the sound of a P51 Mustang? (turn up your sound)

We, accordingly, arranged the event tickets, the overnight stay and the boat crossing.
Airshows can be very noisy, so some ear protection was required for the little guy as well.

We planned to visit my parents, after the show,  up north so Yaz was with us as well.
But having Yaz with us all day, would not be a good idea so we arranged a nice place to stay, close to the airport.

We went, eventually, to the airport, after having a good night’s sleep,  and o dear……
There were a lot of Shops!!! However, it required some pushing not to buy them all empty.
We quickly went to the airstrip and waited for the show to start.

Bad weather

I mean, it was great to see all the shows.
Unfortunately, for us,  some shows had to quit early or didn’t start at all due to (weather) circumstances.
We did see some good stuff though!

We planned already planned the next airshow.  This will be the Belgian Air Force Day.
The little guy is looking forward to it already. A real air force base is very exciting of course.

And there will be the APROC 2018.

In short, with regard to an airshow, the next one is already planned. The Belgian Air Force Day.
The little guy is looking forward to it already. A real air force base is very exciting of course.

Portfolio

I’m making changes still to my portfolio as well.

Keep an eye on my portfolio and for any other aviation photos, and do have a look over here.
This series will follow soon in an album.
