Fly-past veterans day 2015

Post by paul-760 »

On Saturday June 27th the traditional flypast in The Hague will once again take place (c. 13h15). The flight route is published in the official announcement https://zoek.officielebekendmakingen.nl ... 16638.html and mentions the Dutch Hawker Hunter, historic aircraft and a police helicopter.
Amongst the historic aircraft will be the PH-PBY Catalina.

Does anybody know if any modern aircraft of the Royal Dutch Airforce may also be expected, like in previous years?

De helicoptes kwamen in een 'zwerm' van acht stuks laag over Voorschoten, op weg naar Den Haag. Indrukwekkend gezicht.

Daarna Beech + Catalina + Harvard.

Vervolgens B25 + Spitfire.

Als afsluiting kwam de veel snellere Hawker Hunter. Deze vloog bij Voorschoten nog een heel stuk achter de rest aan maar ik verwacht dat boven Den Haag het gat wel dichtgelopen was.
