I have some b/w pictures of the airshows in the sixties and seventies. I also have the "programmaboekjes"of these airshows. I have visited them and remenber them still. If you can do something with this let me known.

I have loads of movements of Wildenrath from 1981 to when the base closed. Let me know if you can use them as I will have to type them from my notebooks into the computer.

Hi Wolfman,

Great site and looking forward to the 80s. Hoping the information you have and are getting is as good as it looks for the 60s and 70s. Have just this year finished scanning in 1000s af negs and slides so if there are any specific aircraft from the 70s and 80s you would like a pic of for the site, do let me know.
Great work, have been looking forward to seeing it for a while.

Kind regards
RickW
