For Hornet, Gripen, Tiger, a/g, flares and mountain lovers: airshow in VERY special surroundings...

Been there in 2010, one of the best airshows I've ever been!

Unfortunately, due to a slight health issue I couldn't make the climb this year. I planned to go to Meiringen air base with some friends to see takeoffs and landings, but it was very foggy. The runway was used as a parking lot for cars, and when we asked a soldier where the aircraft would have taken off from, he replied: "From Sion [on the other side of Switzerland]! They can't take off from here with this fog."

3 hours and a half of driving from Italy to Switzerland wasted :angry:
