Some recent negative-scans from the KLu in february 1982, taken at Eindhoven and Leeuwarden. Can't believe it's already 41 years ago...

NF-5s are lovely, but the first F-104 is stunning.

Thanks for sharing these, some really excellent shots and great memories too. My first Dutch show was Eindhoven in 1986.

Hi Harold,
great set there :thumbs:
My first visit to Volkel was 12th May 1982.
After visiting family in Arnhem we were invited by 311 Sqd for the visit and spent a fantastic day (with a nice lunch too) It certainly paid to have my wife with
me ;)
In the afternoon a few guys from the Bruggen Spotters Group joined us.
It was great to see the first F-16A's along with the non stop F-104 movements... I must get my shots posted

Best regards
Keith (3Greens)
