The mid 1990s shows in the Netherlands were truly massive one day events, with flying displays lasting eight hours and static parks rammed with exotic hardware, the recently opened borders to Eastern Europe attracting multiple Czech and Slovak items and later the Polish and Hungarians.

Volkel 1995, mostly statics, apologies for the number of pics but there was that much good stuff. Scanned from KR64 slides.

There was also my first sightings of the new "grey" yuk RAF Tornado and Jaguar on show but we'll ignore those!
