Hello everyone,
Here is the last batch of pictures of the luchtmachtdagen! Enjoy…

Belgian F-16 Flying By...

Belly Pass! (loving the paint job!)

Popping Flares! (was lucky on the shutter
)

Flares falling from the skies...

Some more flare-popping moments! (loving how the flares light up the plane and the smoke trails)

Close-up of pilot and the canopy ^^

Coming-in hot! (What is that bird thinking?
)

Painting: "Smoke in the Sky"

Painting the skies white!

Crazy Barrel rolling Turkish Aerobatics Pilot!

For those interested in the pilot ^^

Me during the F-16 demo (see how far we were standing?)

Smiling faces during the demonstrations!
Now the pictures of the so amazing Britisch Red Arrows!

Beginning the show with a radial break! (Nice contrast ay?)

Painting the skies blue, red and white!

Breaking left, right and up!

The "Unlimited Formation"

Close Head-on Fly-by at about 500km/h (lucky on the shutter again...)

Double Inner Barrel rolling! (sorry, couldn't be lighter or more contrasty...)

Close Triangle Formation
Then the English said goodbye. Same manoeuvre as they opened the show plus a battle formation fly-over ( over the audience).

Radial Break

Good bye...

Battle Formation Fly-over
Now the Patrouille de France… due to the weather, they only did the group ‘rigeurs’ and not the dynamic high programme. Quite disappointing, but still very impressive. I guess the French fly better than the play soccer
.

The 3x3x2 '18' formation

Blue-Blanc-Rouge...(inverted the dutch one!)

Final Close formation fly-by and starting the landing right-breaks
Well, hope all of these pictures gave you a good impression how the Luchtmachtdagen 2010 were! We will have to wait 2 years for the next event to come. Due to the financial crisis, the Ministry of Defense decided not to host the show next year, but the year after. Already counting down the days and hoping for better weather then!
Should you wish some high-resolution pictures, feel free to contact me…
