Hello all,
as promised some information on this event.
Weekend started Friday with a "real" surprise. Had hotel-room 747 at the airport hotel.
The event took place at EHLE an airport 50 km west of Amsterdam Schiphol. They have some really nice planes there including a B747-200 and the very detailed 1:1 scale model of Amsterdam airport back in 1928. Really fascinating!!! No jetways nor metal detectors or luggage belts.....
Will post some pictures later as well but you can get a
real good impression of the museum here: including a walkaround in- and ouside the museum. (Make sure to click the photos as well).
The exhibition took place benath and around the exposed aircraft which really made a good atmosphere.
Besides lots of VATSIM/IVAO pilots flying the main impression I had was that cockpit builders were everyhwere. Ranging from static cockpits up to motion platforms covering the whole pricerange as well.
...tbc...
