Airshow

-
I had a really nice time at the Aachen airshow.

-

It is a small airport which has a lot of gliders, a couple of flight schools, and the medivac helicopter for the German Auto Club.

-

In the hangers there were the usual Cessna 152s and 172s, lots of Pipers, a Beachcraft Bonanza and a small C-90 King Air, plus a few Mooneys.
-
On display there were lots of neat aircraft (including three T6’s) and a great display of American WWII jeeps and trucks.
-
I got to ride in a helicopter.

-

It was not my first or even my second time riding in a helicopter, but helicopters are always a lot of fun!

And there were some excellent aerobatic displays, mostly in Russian Tupelov aircraft.
