July 21, 2009 - A yearly tradition is the military parade on the Belgian National day. Together with this event the squadrons of the Belgian Air Component organise a family day to have family and friends joining in on the every day life of the pilots and all other crew members.

After the F-16s had left for the military parade, Mitch performed before the numerous family members and friends. After his display he immediately flew to Beauvechain AB to attend the open house there.  Flying together with the F-16s who flew for the military parade in Brussels a little earlier, the visitors could witness some formation flying. Fortunately the weather was not all that bad - as happens in numerous occasions on this day.
