Gilze-Rijen Airshow (Holland) - June 2005
On Saturday the 18th June 2005, Gilze Rijen (nr Tilberg in Holland) airbase opened it's doors to the public for a fantastic military air day.
I was invited along with a group of experienced aircraft photographers to try my hand at something a little bit different!
Having already attended the Dawlish Air Day in 2004. I wasn't quite prepared for the experiance of a full European Airshow Event. 350 images later I was somewhat amazed at just how much we have photographed in one day.
This gallery details some of my more interesting shots, many thanks to Kev Wills for the invite!!
