SPECIAL THANKS: 2Tactical Ala; 350 Fighter Squadron Matrix.
The Belgian Air Component expects your attendance on Florennes Airbase for the International Airshow 2012.
On Saturday the 23rd and Sunday the 24th of june 2012, the 2nd Tactical Wing will organize the Air Component annual international Air Show that will take place on Florennes Airbase.
Such an opportunity only occurs once every ten years !
As a reminder, the last meeting organized by the 2nd Wing took place in 2001.
Besides the airborne, static displays and other usual refinements, the 2nd Tactical Wing has chosen a unique and very special guideline for the airshow 2012.
The will here is to clearly offer our visitors an extra bonus and to stand out from other distinguished events of the same type.
Our chosen theme : « 70 years of military aviation at Florennes ».
One can easily imagine the typical atmosphere during wartime era…
The public, traditionaly fond of that type of reconstitution, will be able to stroll around a setting that will be a perfect look-alike location of the « plaine de Juzet » when it was occupied by Messerschmitt 110 from the 1942 german Luftwaffe, then by P-61 Black Widow and P-38 Lightning from the US Army Air Force in 1944.
We will stress on an identical historical reconstitution.
But, what would be a meeting without aeroplanes ?
Just rest assured, they will be present, on the ground and in the air.
Loopings, barrel rolls, 9G’s tight turns … and all this breathtakingly of course !!
The Air Component and the 2nd Wing put every effort to offer its guests the best show ever.
An absolute not to be missed experience.
