Sanicole Airshow

The International Sanicole Airshow (ISA) is the annual airshow organised by Aeroclub Sanicole in cooperation with the Belgian Air Force. It is the only civil airshow in Belgium which is organised annually. It all started with a very small "festival of stuntmen" in the mid-70s.  Back then several thousand spectators enjoyed the show. During the 80s the show grew into a true international airshow with participants from the Netherlands, England, France, America, Jordan ... and the ISA was one of the many annual air festivals in our country.

Also in the 90s, the airshow gained popularity abroad, becoming one of the leading aviation events in Europe. Due to the higher safety demands placed upon the organisation of airshows, the ISA sadly remained the sole annual airshow in Belgium by the end of the 90s. In the meantime, the ISA has become a household name and developed into an international event that is considered both in Belgium and abroad as the number one reference for innovation, safety and quality. They were also recognised by the European Airshow Council in 2010 when they received the Paul Bowen award for best European airshow.
