Although these pictures were not made with the most sophisticated camera at the open day of 1981 it might still be interesting to see what type of aircraft attended the airshows in those days.

It makes me want to :@(: when I realise that I walked around the airfield during that airshow (as an 8 year old, together with mommy and daddy and my little brother, not even knowing what the diffence was between an F-111 and and F-4 - let alone how to handle a camera...).
