Exposition
HANGAR-7 |
  |
| The
passengers interior of this beauty normally remains 'secret' only for
VIP's. For this one occasion Dutch Aviation Support was granted to show
these two interior pictures. |
 |
|
 |
| The
cockpit, classic model |
|
No
digital displays |
  |
| Inside,
outside, even the wheel hatches, it's all shining and proper ! |
 |
|
 |
| A
look at the engines, what a sight to see them starting up ! |
 |
|
 |
| 4 Pratt & Whitney R2800CB-3
take this lady in the air ! |
 |
| Here
she flies, accompanied by an Alpha Jets out of the 'Flying Bull's
collection |
 |
|
 |
| The
beautifull building of glass and steel, the hangars in the shape of a wing |
 |
|
 |
| A
mighty view inside, exposed airplanes and helicopters of all kind all over
the place |
|
|
 |
| A
conversationroom high under the top shows you all beneath it like this
shining helicopter |
 |
|
 |
| Perhaps
we can report again, about this waterplane, or the logistics outside... |
 |
|
 |
| The
Flying Bulls have a fleet of four hardly ever seen Alpha jets in the
collection |
 |
|
 |
| We
hope to report about them in future !! |
