19/03/2005 "Exclusief" Knokke + pictures

[mister300D]

Hello,

Saturday 19/03 it's "de nacht van exclusief" again at Knokke.
I heard that they turn the beach into a heliport for this event (although that's waht they did the years before). I'd like to go to take some pictures, is there someone who has some more information about the location and hour of arrival of the heli's?

Hello Michaël,

I'm not sure if they will use the beach this year, but if so they would land in front of the casino. If I were you I would check out the heliport in the industrial estate 't Walletje aswell. This is situated between Knokke and Westkapelle.

Regards,
Kristof

thanx for your reply Westwings.

I just called the to Knokke tourist-desk, they told me they just decided that the heli's will land on the beach in front of the casino . Also hot air-balloons will be deployed over there. (I hope the information is correct)
The heli's will stay on the beach for a while to give you the opportunity to take a closer look.

Let's hope for some sunshine.
