New organization!

Wings and Wheels is organised by a new organization, VZW 4Def.
The main purpose is: to maintain the event as we know it today, trying to improve and to expand the event.

 

We certainly want to: 

- offer collectors of militaria a permanent opportunity to offer, to show and
   to sell their items. This, during a whole weekend in a beautiful

   surrounding.

- offer visitors, interested in military equipment of past and present, the

   opportunity to discover and if possible to use or to buy these materials.

- offer the opportunity to re-enactors to practice, or to show their war story

   to the visitors, whilst reliving it.

- carry out some adaptations which will make the event even more realistic

   and pleasant.

 

Happening, briefly outlined

We stick to our original concept: a military history show with its own character where the atmosphere is cosy. An event that’s a fun day out for the enthusiastic collector and his/ her family.
