Boss Hoss meets naval aviators: with horsepower on land and in the air

The loud roar of the engines, the smell of fuel and rubber in the air. And people who can't stop marvelling. What sounds like a normal day at the naval air base was this time thanks to the enthusiasts of the American Boss Hoss motorbikes.

Almost 35 of these V8 machines were also guests of the Naval Air Command on 3 September as part of a motorbike meeting in Nordholz. For an afternoon, all participants were able to ride out their machines in the best weather and present them together with one of the maritime patrol aircraft, a P-3C Orion.

In the end, however, everyone had to ask themselves the same question: "Would I rather be travelling with lots of horsepower on land or in the air?"
