For
the Dutch Readers: |
De
internationale helikopter luchtvaartshow ‘Belgian Helidays’ werd voor
de 8° keer georganiseerd op vliegveld Luik op 2 & 3 juni 2007. Aange-
moedigd door het enorme succes van de voorgaande edities opende de Wing
Helikopters van het militaire vliegveld van Luik-Bierset opnieuw zijn
deuren voor het publiek en bood een fantastische airshow aan. In
2005 waren meer dan 100 helikopters aanwezig komende van 12 verschillende
landen. Dit unieke event werd wijd besproken in alle media alsook in de
gespecialiseerde pers. Meer dan 35.000 bezoekers waren aanwezig op de
vorige editie. Het publiek zal in grote getale aanwezig zijn op de luchtvaarshow en de winsten ervan worden overgemaakt aan goede doelen. |
