Portugal Airshow

Portugal Airshow is the biggest aeronautical event in all of the Iberic Peninsula. Taking place every two years, the last edition was held in 2009 at Évora airfield, Portugal. The following compilation of photos refer to the 2007 and 2009 editions. Although these limited number of photos only show a small part, its a remarkable event with the participation of several aeronautical entities both civilian and military. All of these pictures were taken with a simple point and shoot 3.2Mp Sony digital camera.
 
Thank you for your visit.
