Before the Airshow season starts, all members of Bronco Demo Team come together at Wevelgem Airport for a weekend of preparation for the upcoming season. Crew members arrived from the UK, Germany and Belgium on the Friday evening and visited Ypres. At 8PM the last post took place under the Menin gate remembering the fallen during the World War I. Afterwards we had a very enjoyable dinner in a restaurant at the Ypres square. |

For the first time a raffle took place to win a flight in the Bronco. Many people took part and Tony’s grandson picked the winning number. The lucky winner is: Ralf Pscheidt, who came all the way from Lubeck, the place where the Broncos were based in Northern Germany, congratulations. Half a hour later, Ralf took place in the cockpit and soon took off for an experience of a lifetime he will not soon forget! Many thanks to all the fans who came out to our 7th Bronco Fan Day, and for your great support we had over the years! |
