Synthale Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Hi Mongo !! what Joachim said: Luchtvaart Hobby Shop near Schiphol is -absolutely- worth a visit!! Its AwEsOmE! Museum in Soesterberg (near Utrecht) is very good as well!! There are extremely few good hobbyshops in Holland In The Hague and Amsterdam you can always try toyshops like Intertoys. Another shop which some time carries (cheap, Revell) kits is Blokker, a general household store. Oh, in the town of Rijswijk near The Hague and next to the trainstation there is another well-stocked shop called "Wapstad". It also specialises in HO scale trains etc. On 15+16 June the KLu (Koninklijke Luchtmacht, Royal Netherlands Airforce) will hold its annual Open Day with an air and static show. This will be in the south of the country on Volkel Airbase. For more info (in Dutch) see: http://www.luchtmacht.nl/opendagen2007/index.html And here's a forum: http://www.scramble.nl/forum/viewforum.php...dbc1edcb9ae43f8 Hope you'll enjoy your time in Holland! grtz, Sven Quote Link to post Share on other sites
