Meiringen Open Days 2007
A Dutch Aviation Media contribution
Those were rainy days, 23rd and 24th of March 2007
Meiringen had taken so much trouble to get a perfect show and demonstrations
D
But the weather teased this PC-9...
... as well as this PC-7 and all visitors !
s
Highlight was this Belgian F-16AM
Ofcourse the Tigers came out of the caverns
Many displays flown by F-5 Tigers
The Porter PC-6 shows out
Also the Hornets took part
But snowy weather remained
Inside there was a lot to see in the hangars
Such as testing the F/A-18 undercarriage
Admire the inboard gun
Not very often to be seen
There were many demonstrations in the snow
Like a pilot was 'wounded'and to be rescued
Here the Hornet picks up the break-cable
In some seconds the Hornet stops !
Also the Alpnach helicopters...
... showed their skills along the mountains
Lets hope for better weather conditions for next occasions.
With thanks to all involved in the organisation. The catering was super !
Back to COCKPIT and other magazines
