Aviation Day 2018

What a great day it was Saturday, 5 January! For those interested, after a fierce battle this was the end-result of the 29th Dutch Spotters Chapionships (NSK).

Compliments to the Eindhoven Welschap Aviation Society (EWAS) for compiling this years NSK (and staying true to its local colours with quite a few questions regarding Eindhoven and its famous inhabitants) and of course to the fifteen teams participating this! Congratulations to Aviation Group Leeuwarden 1 that beat Scramble team 1 in the final phase of the competion. Also great to see On Dutch Wings again and the youngsters of the Woensdrecht Aviation Society, who did not fear to battle the many "spotter-o-saurus"in the other teams. Hopefully Spotting Group Maastricht will join us again for the NSK 2019.

We are also looking back on a great day at our marvelous new location Skydeck Teuge at Teuge Airport, with a well attended Air Fete (75 stand holders) and the impressive F-16AM simulator.

Quite a few people took the opportunity to photograph the resident MIG-21, MIG-23 and O-2 after the proceedings had been concluded, taking advantage of the many colours offered by Skydeck. Hopefully we can provide some additional photographic possibillities next time.

There is a chance we will be organising an evening programme again for the next event, we will let you know in due course. 

To everybody that attended, thanks for visiting!
