 Headset & GPS Day, 24th April 2010
Next weekend we are holding a theme day dedicated to headsets and GPS. Leading manufacturers will be present to demonstrate their products and for those of you who want to test a headset in flight before purchase we have an aircraft and pilot standing by so that you can try the headset without worrying about piloting the aircraft in the often busy airspace around Lelystad Airport. Test flights will cost a nominal €15,00 but this will be deducted from the price of any headset purchased on the day.
Aviadrome have agreed to offer visitors to the Headset & GPS day a 25% reduction on admission charges to the museum so can combine a visit to the Headset & GPS day with a family day out.
We expect to welcome the following companies on the 24th:
Headsets
Beyerdynamic
Bose
David Clark
Lightspeed
Sennheiser
GPS
AvMap
BendixKing
Garmin
Watches
Torgoen Professional Pilot Watches
Other companies present include
AirKub air charters
AOPA Netherlands
Flevo Air
Stichting Hoogvliegers
SimSensation ( flight simulator training)
Pilots & Planes magazine
Piloot & Vliegtuig magazine
Wooning Aviation ( air charters) |
