Collection Philippe Veys

aerodromes_belges_1934_Coll_Veys.jpgCollection Philippe Veys Box 1 
In August 2011, the collection Philippe Veys was given to the Brussels Air Museum Funds to be preserved digitally and put at the disposal of the aviation researchers.

Philippe Veys collaborated with many newspapers before World War 2 and collected documents about aviation. The Belgian Aviation History Library was selected for her capability to convert great quantities of paper to digital archives permitting easy access and the diffusion of this collection, the result of many years of hard labor of an Aviation Enthusiast.

We are proud to publish these documents and share them with the aviation community.

If you want to use these documents, please mention Collection Philippe Veys.

Video : Boeing 747-200 Max Weight Takeoff

Thx Louis & Jean :-)




It's an excellent cockpit view (shot from the jump-seat) of an older 747-200 taking off on runway 08 at the Ostend Belgium airport at or very near max takeoff weight. I highly recommend you watch this video, and that you do so in the 720p HD setting and in full screen... you'll feel like you're right there with the crew!

371 ton take-off from RWY 08 Ostend. V1 164kts, Vr 176, V2 186kts. The aircraft gets airborne with approximately 800m of runway remaining. Shot from the jump-seat.
