Take offs & Arrivals

Early in the afternoon the QRA departed and intercepted the Belgian Air Force Embraer which was used for pleasure flight. This made it possible for some of the visitors of the spottersday to take some nice air to air shots. After these birds made a nice fly-by overhead the field it was time for some air displays. These where done by the Sea King, the Belgian demo F-16 and a fleshly painted Fouga Magister.

When we were done taking shots of the static display, we found a nice spot half way the runway to take some take off shots. Most of the aircraft stayed very low during take off, or the made a nice bank towards to crowd. Especially the departures of the French Navy Rafales were pretty spectacular.

Some of the aircraft that came back after their COMAO mission made a nice low approach or fly-by. The four Italian Vipers made a real nice pass over the runway followed by some very nice low approaches. After all we can look back to a successful event.
