Title: Another boring day....
Post by: Staga on July 02, 2005, 01:15:31 PM

Well not really. Spent day in Airshow in Lappeenranta in Finland.
Dutch F-16s, French Mirages, Swedish P-51 Mustang, Finnish Fouga Magister, Midnight Hawks demo team with their BAE Hawks and Hornets, Swedish Hawker Hunter, Dad & Son Eichorn with their Texans/Harvards, few helos and KC-135 & plenty of others in sky and in ground.

Few sucky pics; taken with old crappy Olympus & Nokia 6680:

This aircraft (http://koti.mbnet.fi/staga/airshow/P1010011.JPG) doing aerobatics in high was forced to have altitude; it didn't had engine at all ;D
Crowd was quite silent and listening classic music from the loudspeakers while Christoph Zahn took his DFS-Habicht; 70 years old model, to dance in the skies. Beautiful sight and quite big contrast to the jets :)
