Experimental model airplanes Interexp 2009

This weekend was the InterExp 2009. It is an international fly-in of experimental model aircraft in Nederweert, The Netherlands.

Here you see a flying barrel





And here's the Wright flyer. It is the experimental airplane of the chairman of aeroclub Bladel. This aircraft was the first to see the skies. It is very difficult to build and trim. This afternoon a large hop was made....unfortunately followed by a small crash (some wooden parts were broken). It won the spectators' prize of being the most popular aircraft!


Here's a pulsejet airplane. The reason it was on this airshow was because it had a regulation on the flow of fuel to the pulsejet engine.





And here is a very special airplane, made of 3 wings.....The text on its wing reads: "What goes up, must come down". The 1st flight of this airplane had some difficulties and it landed in the mais. The 2nd flight (depicted here) was much better and it also made a nice landing.





And finally, "Patrouille de France", a combination of 4 model airplanes flying as one. The last airplane has a smoke pod.
