Twilight Thunder (EHLE)

Welcome to Twilight Thunder, a unique event at Lelystad airport where historic aircraft come to life in the dark. A spectacular photo shoot with re-enactors, roaring engines under exposure along with a pop-up museum.

An event like this does not take place anywhere else in the Netherlands and surroundings. We want to put Historical Aviation back on the map here with something that is really special. Part of our proceeds will go to the restoration of a Noorduyn Norseman project at Lelystad airport, owned by the Norseman Foundation.

Mark your calendars for Saturday, December 19! An engine run event is coming to the Netherlands, taking place at Lelystad Airport. The gates will be open from 16:00 till 17:00, and the event is scheduled to conclude around 20:00.
Food and drinks will be available for purchase on-site, and restroom facilities will also be provided.

The program includes the following:
– Entry: 16:00 – 17:00
– 17:00 – 18:00: Re-enactment photoshoot
– Break
– Engine runs, featuring aircraft such as an AT-6A Texan, Yak-52, Fairchild 24G, and a Stinson 108 (with more to be announced later).
– Departure period: 20:00 – 20:30

Tickets will be available soon, priced at €50.
