Hi everyone, yesterday I had the pleasure of visiting the Texel Airshow at Texel International airport.
This show caught my eye as it was mentioned as one of the last public shows of the PBY-5A Catalina from Lelystad airport, which has to be sold off due to a change in regulations and the resulting loss of funds to keep her in the air.
Sadly she couldn't make it after losing an engine last week, hope she finds a new home soon where she can entertain the crowds once again.
But even without the Catalina there were plenty of other great war-birds and modern ones to see, so here is a selection of the photo's I took:
These two flew in formation:
Some more from our Airforce:
More to follow...
