Photo album: Retroplane Argenteuil Donnet Leveque Replica Walkaround

Interesting replica of one of the first successful seaplane.
The project took 22 years to be completed, so next time someone ask to have a replica of an aircraft in 3 months, this splendid machine help to explain the complexity of such a challenge.

Expo De Internationale Vliegweek in Temse 1912 in Temse 2012 09

I had the opportunity to visit the exhibition the last Sunday. For me it was the perfect example of some good lessons not to be forgotten. First it demonstrate, tenacity and enthusiasm can produce an nice, interesting and well designed exhibition. The organizers succeed in collecting interesting exhibits and the visitors really learn something. The presence of the Donnet Leveque replica was certainly not a piece of cake but again good will, creativity and maximum effort can produce such miracles. Some have sometime doubts about the airminded spirit in Belgium. Events like the Temse expo demonstrate they is an interest in the public, with some authorities and airminded peoples in this country for aviation.

Thanks for the nice moment in Temse.
