Ha haaaaa, Roel,
that pic with the police-hats looks very familiar.............
Picture was taken by Roel van Maarseveen near RAF Abingdon, if I remember well.
Indeed a policeman offered us to stay at his house. He was not even there by the way, on night shift. Even the police knows that Soesterberg-spotters are very trustworthy persons!
Keep the pictures coming please!

A message for Remco
Hi,EHAM wrote:Very, very funny, those pictures. I wonder who are still active as a spotter or work in the aviation business or have already children with the same hobby (I do). And I miss a lot of Soesterberg spotters, like Robert Hoeting (nowadays a pilot with Air Dolomiti), René (don't know his last name, a bit long hair, he travelled by bus, he only wrote numbers and had a half binoculars), 3 brothers Duurland (at least one of them studied in Delft), Johan van de Bunt and his older brother (I saw Johan at one of the pictures), and so on. I also remember the J-79 magazine.
Greetings from Remco 'de rechter' de Wit, who is still active as a spotter now and then and who has a very active son: Joost de Wit, webmaster of http://www.aviaspotters.nl
Remco I am still active and even my brother Emiel
See my reply to Roel.

Thanks for posting these for me Roel!warthog64 wrote:Gerard Heijmen, send me a e-mail with these two photo's from his own collection,
The first one is taken at Metz on 22JUN1986 (photographer unknown).
A lot of us will remember "Akie the Discopilot"....... this guy claimed to be a pilot with the 32TFS. He was a singer and I even still have one of his records at home (a drawing of him in a pilot-suit with a CR-Eagle in the background, on the record-cover).

Disco really made it. It's empty and I hate it.
