Forwarded message From: Vintage Wings

Ladies and Gentlemen Aviators

Robert "Kirk" Kirkpatrick is an American who joined the RCAF, not before, but after Pearl Harbor. He went on to fly de Havilland Mosquitos on 24 ops over Europe. As the 2012 edition of our American Thanksgiving Story tradition, we offer up this vignette of a great American aviator in a Canadian uniform. Follow this link to learn more -

Addition to the Collection Philippe Veys


 Addition to the 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.
