Photo album: Biscarosse - Musée de l'Hydraviation

A very nice Museum located in the south of France, between Arcachon and Biarritz.

One upon a time the base of Latecoère and Luftwaffe seaplane, this seabase is now the house of a small but very interesting museum dedicated to seaplane. I really appreciated the friendly welcome of the visitors. If there are not so much aircraft on display, the various exhibits on show are well presented and this is a place where you learn something. The aircraft of the collection are in modern hangar and such rare aircraft (at least here in Europe) as a Grumman Widgeon or a CAMS replica are on view. Run by volunteers, they succeed in getting support from the local authorities and the Le Bourget Museum. Really a place to visit as well as an example to follow.

TUI Travel Leases Embraer 190s for Belgium’s Jetairfly

TUI Travel PLC, one of the world’s leading leisure-travel groups, is joining the ranks of operators of the Embraer E-Jets family.
The group will lease two Embraer 190 jets from BOC Aviation, a Singapore-based aircraft leasing company. The two Embraer 190s will be delivered in the first half of 2013 to Jetairfly, TUI’s subsidiary airline in Belgium.
Jetairfly’s Embraer 190 jets will be configured with 112 slimline seats in a single-class layout.  According to Embraer, the E-Jets will allow the airline to provide capacity more economically on lower-demand routes that it currently serves with larger narrowbody aircraft.
The Embraer 190s are also intended to be deployed in some Jetairfly winter markets where seasonal demand is better satisfied with 100-seat aircraft, says Embraer. Source: Airlines and destinations

Lancaster W4234 DX-P

57 RAF Sqd


Tijdens de eerste winternacht (21 december) van 1942 vlogen de bommenwerpers van Bomber Command richting München. Omstreeks 23u30 ving de Freya-radar langs de kust de eerste berichten op van de aankomende formatie. Van op St.-Truiden werden 5 toestellen op goed geluk ingezet. Ook van op Laon-Athies startten de Messerschmitts van de 1.NJG 4 de motoren en verspreidden zich doorheen het Vlaamse luchtruim. Eén van de indringers was de Lancaster met rompcode DX-P,een toestel van het 57 Squadron, die nacht opgestegen in Scampton (Engeland).
