About us
We, Tom and Wim,
live in De Panne (Belgium west-coast), close to Koksijde airbase,
and are passionated by aviation since we were young. In 1998 we
started photographing and visiting airshows and other aviation events
in Belgium and surrounding countries. Since then we created a nice
photocollection of many different aircraft types from around the
world. Living under the approach of Koksijde airbase we can regulary
be found near our "homebase". In 2002 we created the website
of Spotting
Group Koksijde, bringing the local aviation enthousiast
together.
Some of our photographs
have allready been published in magazines (Scramble magazine, Aermacchi
world, Revista Aeronautica, Volare,...), company publications, aviation
websites (www.airliners.net
, www.airshows.be
,...), airshow publications,... High resolution photographs can
be arranged by contacting us via e-mail.
If you have questions
or remarks, don't hesitate to contact us via email (contact@sgkoksijde.be).
