25th-26th february 2011:
The European Airshow Council moved this year from Hasselt to Brussels. This was due to the participation of more than 200 delegates out of 28 countries. This Council is organised every year and has as main objective the promotion of flight safety within the airshow world. The participants consist of organisers of airshows as well as display pilots.
This year, the emphasis was mainly put on human factors which could lead to incident/accidents. We sadly had to hear that 2010 was the worst year with the most deadly accidents within airshows worldwide. EAC is also a forum to exchange ideas with pilots from other countries. Also this year, interesting contacts could be laid and new exchanges of ideas could be accomplished, which, hopefully, can lead to a more attractive display for the Victors. Luc and Manu participated in the EAC conference.

26th february 2010: Friday 26 February 2010, Victor 1 (Manu) and Victor 2 (Luc) participated at the European Airshow Council in Hasselt. This council has as main objective to improve safety at Airshows. This year,organisers and teams from 26 countries were attending. But, additionally, it is also very interesting to meet several people with the same passion for airshows in order to exchange a lot of ideas to improve the displays. The main convention was opened by Major General Claude Van De Voorde, Commander of the Belgian Air Component. He mentioned that in the future, it would become harder for the Air Forces to support civilian Airshows, due to transformation of forces. Interesting briefings for us were those of the civilian display team and how they are structured and how they were created. These briefings came from the famous Breitling Jet Team (of France) and the Italian pioneer team. From both briefing we could substract several lessons for our future. We are already looking forward to the next edition of the EAC.
On the 20th september 2009, the Victors where present again at the Sanicole Airshow. A videoclip of our demo was sent to us by planecrazynl.
