Discover the Veys Collection

Collection Philippe Veys

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 labour 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. 15 files, last one added on Jan 18, 2012.
Currently more than 100 documents are scanned.http://www.bamf.be/?Collection_Philippe_Veys

Problem with the arrival of European chefs of governments for the Brussels Summit on Monday January 30th

Due to the national strike on next Monday, the arrival of the aircraft transporting the delegation to the European summit in Brussels face problems as the Brussels airport is supposed to be closed. The Belgian government refuse to confirm the aircraft will be routed to Beauvechain air base, 30 km of the European Capital.

Europese leiders landen wellicht op Bevekom door staking

Belgische militairen op de basis van Bevekom. 

De staats- en regeringsleiders die maandag de buitengewone Europese top in Brussel moeten bijwonen, zullen mogelijk landen op de luchthaven van Bevekom. De regering overweegt de luchthaven te gebruiken als de algemene staking Brussels Airport platlegt. Er zijn evenwel een hoop praktische problemen, klinkt het uit eensluidende bronnen.
