Sometimes you get lucky ... I got a VIP card to visit the Koksijde 07 Airshow (Defence Days), except that this was considered to be work ! Well, it kind of was ... at least when work is taking pictures and tasting a French bubbled wine. There was no flying for me that day, although I felt very light at the end of that working day ...
So, the day started with one of my favourite aircraft: the PBY Catalina.

The Eurofighter Typhoon in search of better salesfigures...

British oldie: the Jet Provost.

and another one ... the Vampire

Even older: two props, tailwheel and very Dakota: the DC3 !

Static of five F16s: thanks to my colleague for this and some consecutive pics.

Homerun for this one: the Seaking

The the Belgian Armed Forces Land Component wanted to show off as well: paras escaping from a C130

Simulated attack from the overhead F16s

While the Agusta A109 keeps watch...

C130 back to Melsbroek ...

The Dutch showing off their new paintscheme on the F16

A Belgian F16 with the venerable training jet Fouga Magister announcing the end of the spectacle

And the three operative Seakings taking off to the east ...
