These are excellent. Thanks for sharing. I read his memoirs so I am interested in these photos.

great pics! Just by chance I got a book dealing about the death of MvR in my hands, dealing with the real circumstances. Could not take it out of my hands, read it in one time complete.

The flight, did you worked out the route on your own, or are there localy pilots, who offer this flight-route?

[Douglas Jr.]

Great tour.
The picture in the castle front stairs is great.

we worked it out by our own based on the book the last flight of the red baron and gave that to a local pilot in amiens

normally the pilots offers flights over the somme battlefields
