Welcome to our Bronco Newsletter!

The Bronco Demo Team was created in 2010 by a group of OV-10 Bronco enthousiasts, with the main goal to present the Bronco in its natural environment; flying through the sky. The team operates two restored Bronco's in the original German Air Force finish. After several successfull airshow seasons, we will again be visiting many airshows and aviation events with static and/or flying displays. On the events calendar on our website you'll find out where the Bronco will be displaying near you.

Bronco Fan Day


The fifth edition of our Bronco Fan Day on March 20 at our homebase Wevelgem was a huge success. The Tiger theme was revealed and the brand new Tiger gadgets were available in our promotional stand!

The weather was cloudy with a little bit of sunshine, so we decide to put 99+18 outside and to let 99+26 inside the hangar. So visitors could spent some time outside and could warm up in the hanger while they admire 99+18, 2 skyvans and a Chipmunk. 

In the late afternoon, it was time for the first flight of the year, first flight with the sponsons, the first flight as Tiger 1 and the first Bronco ride for our Swiss cheerleader Christina.

Besides this all we had some live music by dj Cathy, bbq sausages from the best bbq cook in the world, some nice drinks and cosy talks with our fans.

The whole Bronco Demo Team crew would like to thank everyone for their attendance. The season was opened in a great way, and we hope to see everybody again at one of the events we will be visiting during the upcoming summer.

Bronco 2016 theme

The North American Aviation Rockwell OV-10 Bronco is a turboprop light attack and observation aircraft. The OV-10B variant was produced for Germany in the target tug role. 18 aircraft were delivered in the early 70's and they were equipped with target towing equipment inside the fuselage. 
As 99+18 recently gained "claws" with the addition of the original armament sponsons, "Tiger 1" was chosen as fitting theme for the 2016 season. This is colorfully reflected on the aircraft's belly tank.


Bronco Fan Day
We are pleased to announce that the fifth edition of the Bronco Fan Day is taking place on Sunday March 20, 2016 at our home base in Belgium. After the great success of last editions, the tradition will be kept, bringing Bronco Demo Team and friends together during this family event. 
For the very first time we will be showing both our Broncos together: 99+26, which currently is in the final stages of restoration, and 99+18 will be revealing the new tiger theme for the 2016 airshow season. Two scoops in one day!
During the day you will be able to visit both Broncos up-close and personal, meet the crew and enjoy the usual Bronco Demo Team BBQ and refreshments. 
We hope to meet you all on Sunday March 20, from 14h onwards, at Vliegveld 49, 8560 Wevelgem. Entrance is free and please do bring your family and kids!

Bronco Newsflash



Bronco Demo Team's Bronco no. 2 has flown again after an extensive restoration which saw all of it's major components fully overhauled and restored to as new condition.

Formerly 99+26 with the German government and now registered G-BZGL, the airplane was ferried from Duxford (UK) to Bronco Demo Team's homebase at Kortrijk-Wevelgem in Belgium on Wednesday 25 November 2015.


Further maintenance is required over the next couple of months, including a full repaint, returning 99+26 to the pristine condition it was in just as when it left the factory in Columbus, Ohio, some 45 years ago

UK Bronco Fan Day 2014

In order to "pick-up things from where we left off", Bronco Demo Team brought its newly restored OV-10 Bronco to Kemble airfield in the UK for its first public showing on May 3rd, 2014.

Upon arrival on Friday evening Bronco 99+18 briefly halted at the very same spot where 99+32 came to a final rest less than two years ago. A very emotional moment indeed.

We would like to thank everyone of the organization for ther great hospitality!
