Local and private museums in Belgium.

[Jaap Woortman]

Like in Holland there are also several local and private museums with Luftwaffe aircraft or parts from Luftwaffe aircraft in Belgium. Some of these private museums have had bad experience in the past with "uninvited" visitors and therefore would like to remain unknown. We have to respect that. Therefore, in these cases, I will only give the details of the plane(s) like Mikael Orlog has done, after consultation with the owner.

The Vormezeele Collection.
One of the big flying collections in Belgium is the Vormezeele Collection. You can contact the owner at:
Diksmuidelei 7
2930 Brasschaat
Belgium
Fax : +32-3-6632604

Museum of an anonymous owner and location.
One of the spectacular restoration projects in Belgium is done on the privately owned Ju 88A-4. Werknr. 0881402160. The plane from I./KG77 was found in Russia. It will incorporate parts from the Ju 88A-4 Werknr.140242, the Ju 88A-5 Werknr. 088075 with reg. G2+CH and from a Ju 88D-1 with reg. G2+EH.

At a hangar at Wevelghem airfield you can find this collection with a Bücker Bu 133C Jungmeister Reg. OO-EII and the Focke-Wulf Fw 44J Stieglitz with registration OO-JKT.

This information is from Bob Ogden's Aircraft Museums and Collections of the World Part 3. Benelux, German and the Nordic Countries. Second Edition. I have received the Benelux pages from Willem Post.
