From a Yakkes volunteer

Hi, I am a Yakkes ground crew member.
I came in contact with Yakkes through the Atcbox forum. I made a donation to join them and a short time later I was invited to assist the ground crew at the first airshow of 2005. We had a lot of fun with the guys and girl of the crew. The Yakkes crew is also very close with the Duke of Brabant Air Force, the Dutch Classic Wings, Hanno T-6 and lots of other friends. It's always a good laugh.


The very special thing about the Yakkes ground crew is that we are always hanging around at our aircraft during airshows. We always try to be as close as possible to the crowd.

The main reason for this is to have interaction between the crowd and Yakkes. The public is free to ask any questions and we will always try to answer them as best as we can. There are folders and stickers available with information about Yakkes and their aircraft.
We also have the items from our Online Shop available there. A very special thing is the poster signed by the pilot, the children are always very fond of it. There are already hundreds of Yakkes posters hanging in childrens bedrooms. It's also possible to join the Yakkes Foundation.

Hope to see you soon at one of our airshows, feel free to stop by!
