Great shots all .

OK, I'm travelling, but these I edited already. Just a slightly different angle, but I like them. They're from Friday. Really liked the Belgian Viper and French Deux Mille displays.

Did they change display regulations?

The KLU F-16 Demo team is scheduled for RIAT though.

Given that this was my first Leeuwarden Open House, I thought the variety of aircraft was quite good, even liked the fact that you can take a train to Leeuwarden from Amsterdam and hop on a bus right to the base, no car needed.  Had a great time at the 2 day show, have lots of photos to go through, but did want to give a big thanks to Andre for answering my hundred or so questions about getting to the show.

Regards
Howard

Glad to hear you liked it Howard. 

I think I am bit spoiled by Leeuwarden airshows in the past but if its your first it really pays of.

Hope you enjoyed the rest of Holland as well  and had safe trip home.
