IMPRESSION
Enjoy
this photographic impression of a sad day for the German
Organisation and also all participants because of the weather and
cancellation in the late afternoon. Also a sad day for the Royal

we wish the German Crews and Navy pleasant flights and many happy
landings !! (former
Dutch 320 / 321 Sqn MVKV)
