2009 07 04 Koksijde Airshow

Each year Koksijde Airbase hosts its annual airshow called Koksijde International Airshow. Koksijde is an airbase in the southwestern part of Belgium close to the French border. The base is home of the well known Sea King helicopters and the Allouette III.
The static display contains some nice visitors like a Spanish F-5 and a Hungarian Gripen. The celebrate the 30the anniversary of the F-16 in the Belgian Air Force, some nations sended a Viper to Koksijde.
The flying was dominated by a display teams with propollers such as the Croatian Wings, Marche Verte, Royal Jordanian Falcons, Cartouche Doré, Baby Blue Team and the Red Devils. Jet display teams were Team Iskra and Patrouille de France. Single demos were given by the Swiss Hornet, French Rafale, Dutch and Belgian Viper.
The airshow had a nice mix of civilian acts and military displays which made the venue again a pleasure to visit.
