when most of Holland went to the beach to cool down, I went with a friend for a ride with Fokker Four and I had a great time. After the briefing the flights started and unfortunately I was in the last group, just me and my friend so a two-ship. The good side was we could decide where and what to do and I made some great picture today. The splendid weather did a good job and I can realy recommend a flight with Fokker Four. It is a great experience with some nice talk with the ex-Netherlands Air Force pilots. A big "thank you" to them for their hospitality and service. I must say flying with the canopy open is a realy nice experience and also give you an extremely good photographic view. Although trying to keep taken pictures during a 3g loop proved a bit more difficult than I thought
here some of the pics!

Very nice flight on a hot summers day ....
I visited the T2 Hangar a day earlier and only could watch the Fokker Four resting
