Leatherhead,
The Aviodrome Museum has been moved to Lelystad Airport. Aviodrome And our Foundation is also housed there at the Airport. Stichting Vroege Vogels/Early Birds Fndn Our colection is the largest one on WWI in Holland. And theres the Militaire Luchtvaart Museum at Kamp Zeist. Militaire Luchtvaart Museum If your friend likes to visit us he very welcome but we are only open on the saturday and wednesday. Saturday being the best option. Also interesting would be the Stampe Vertongen Museum in Antwerp Belgium wich is at a relatively short distance about a two hour drive from Amsterdam. Stampe & Vertongen Museum If he needs more info let him contact me. Willem

There's a nice museum at the Militaire Luchtvaart Museum (Museum of Military Aviation), at Kamp van Zeist, near Schoesterberg AB. This is about an hour's drive from Amsterdam, between the cities of Utrecht and Amersfoort. I was there a couple of years ago, and they had an original Fokker V.II, but I can't remember what else from WWI. You could probably find it online to get more specifics.
