Special thanks to B. Ceulemans for some additions and corrections.

Photos are shown for non commercial purpose and were only put online to illustrate the rich and colorfull history of the Belgian register.
They were taken by:
- myself and credited as "Skystef",
- shared by otherone's (collection) credited with their name,
- scanned from my slide or photo collection. If these slides / photo's carry the name of the photographer, it's credited such. In case of no name I will use "collection Skystef". However, if you recognize some picture(s) as yours, don't hesitate to contact me so I can give the proper credit.

Contribution of pictures is encouraged as some are still missing especially in the section "prop and piston engined aircraft". 

Please send additions or corrections to SkyStef
