| Wevelgem |

Wevelgem airfield in the thirties, illustrating the mixture of aircraft types used for pilot-training, including Avro 504N's, Morane Saulnier 230's, Breguet XIX's and some RSV 32/90's.

Same airfield and same aircraft, but this time as seen from the South.

A busy day at Wevelgem towards the end of 1952. You can see three SV-4B trainers, Spitfire 14 SG-19 on transfer from the 1st WIng at Beauvechain to the JVS/EC at Koksijde. Harvard H-102 has just received an overhaul at Fairey and Meteors F.8 EG-224 and EG227 are brand new. (Info V. Kenens)
