Special thanks to B. Ceulemans for additions and corrections by using his OO- database.

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:
- the webmaster and credited as "Skystef",
- shared by otherone's collection credited with their name,
- scanned from my slide or photo collection which I started to purchase (or swap with my own slides) from 1988 onwards at several airline conventions. Some slides came from the collection of G. Van Belleghem who passed away in 2018 and released by ASA Antwerp in 2019, or earlier from the slide collection of F. De Bel partly obtained in 2013, or earlier from the slide collection of W. Collen entirely obtained in 2003. 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.
