Fighter Pilot Memorial Geisenheim - Germany
Hi,
Can anyone tell me with certitude what kind of birds are on top of this memorial. Personally I think it would be logical that it would be eagles, but there seems to be some discussion about this... A photo can be seen here on my site : http://germanairservice.blogeiland.nl/ Thanks and best from Johan

There Eagles for sure only their necks are a bit strangly streched.

Willem,
Als ik kan ga ik proberen me in de meest onmogelijke bochten te wringen om er toch te geraken op die fly-in die jullie organiseren ! Verwachten jullie veel WO I replica's of vroegere toestellen ? Johan

Nou Johan,
Ik weet eerlijk gezegd nog niet hoeveel toestellen hebben toegezegd want ik doe zelf de organisatie ervan niet (Ik ben druk genoeg met de D VII) maar ik zal morgen even vragen hoe de vork in de steel zit. Het zullen voornamelijk Tigermoths, Stearmans en Jungmanns zijn denk ik. Wel weet ik dat je op die dag rondvlughten kunt maken met de Antonov van het Aviodrome. Ook zijn wij iederjaar aanwezig in Schaffen-Diest om weer even de prijs voor het oudste toestel op te pikken  Als je me morgen even meelt anders vergeet ik het misschien. Willem
