Dear aviation fans, From time to time we at the European Federation Historic Aviation are in the position to hire a Douglas DC-3 Dakota from the Dutch Dakota Association. Normally, the 16 seats available quickly fill up with DC-3 enthusiasts from the Netherlands. With this invitation we would like to make an exclusive DC-3 flight available to our Belgian friends. We would liketo invite you to participate in a weekend on the beautiful island of Texel, located in the north of Holland. Travel to and from the island will be onboard the DDA's beautifully restored aircraft the PH-PBA which used to belong to the Dutch royal family. We envisage take-off at 11:00 on Saturday 27 August from Lelystad airport    (180 km by road from Antwerp), arriving at Texel after an exciting  45-minute Dakota experience. On the island of Texel there are many things to do, and bicycles will be available free of charge during your stay on the island. There will be an opportunity to visit the local brewery which, even by Belgian standards, produces some great beers. Furthermore, you can explore Texel's stunning nature, play golf or just relax. On Saturday at 19:00 hours the Dakota crew and passengers get together for the Captain's BBQ (drinks included). As far as sleeping accommodation is concerned,  rooms are available at competitive rates, from €30 pp. On Sunday we all meet for breakfast at the Texel restaurant,  and  you then have the opportunity to continue exploring the  island or maybe make a sightseeing flight with the Dakota. At 16:00 hours on 28 of August we return to Lelystad, and after 45 minutes on board you will receive your commemorative DC-3 pin and go home feeling very happy after a really great weekend. We can make you a special offer: ·         1 hour, possibly 1 hour 30 minutes, on board the Dakota (trip to and from Texel) normal price €300.00!!!! ·         A room (for those who respond quickly some rooms are available at €30 pp. ) ·         Use of a bicycle for the two days ·         Captain's BBQ Dinner, including drinks ·         Breakfast ·         DC-3 flight back to Lelystad You get all this for € 250.00 (including a €30 room + tax). For later bookings the room charge may increase. The regular price for all this would be at least €380!!!! We hope many Belgian friends will join us on this special EFHA trip, but please decide quickly since the end of August is quite close, and we only have 16 seats available. Hope to see you soon.
