Chairman Rob opens the 2008 Flight event. This is the second year for the Dutch Chapter and the number of participants and listed cars have more then doubled.
With six teams two cars were judged. A 1977 C3 from our European member Oliver from Germany and a 1978 C3 Pace Car from local member Stef. |

The 77 was a difficult car to judge. With 92 k miles on the odometer it is a car which is really used, so much more difficult to judge than the almost "new" pace car. |

Owner Oliver in action to remove the spare. The wheel was completely original with all markings present. |

The pace car of Stef only has 2,600 original miles on the odometer. |

During lunch we enjoyed the typical Dutch snacks of some fries and krokets. |
|
|
|
After the lunch the teams were swapped. The ones who judged the car of Oliver before lunch now continued with the car of Stef. It was concluded that judging the Pace Car was relatively "easy" since the car is nearly in factory condition. As of it was removed straight from a time capsule. |

|
When judging the interior, exterior, mechanical and chassis sections was done it was time for the nerve wrecking PV session. Both cars only failed on their alarms systems. |

The orange color was well represented that day. Oliver did you expect some extra bonus points by painting your car orange for this occasion.......????? |

After a nerve wrecking but joyfull day Oliver took home a 2nd Flight result! |
|
|
|
Everybody agreed the pace car of Stef was extremely originals. The car with only 2,600 miles on the odometer scored a well deserved TOP Flight! |
