Children and the red Baron

Hello

This picture of a group children before the red Albatros of MVR is taken at the 1914-18 museum in Courtrai

Cute shot! The plane is for sure very appealing for kids. That colour just drags attention on it

How is the museum, BTW? I currently planning a quick trip through Flanders for the next time I get across the pond, and Courtrai is on my list of waypoints. Is there much to see there?

Flanders

The Museum shows the life in a Flemisch town during the war seen through the eyes of a spy. You can watch during the visit a 12 minute film of MVR at Marckebeke.
If possible I can guide you to some airfield relicts in the vicinity of Courtrai.

That would be wonderful Roser. I assume you live in the vicinity then. I plan to be passing through at some point in the first half of August 15, exact date to be determined. I hadn't counted on having a knowledgeable local guide, but I would arrange my timetable to accommodate your convenience if you're offering.
