Opening the curtains at the hotel and I was met by poor weather conditions on my departure day, drizzle. I only saw a few from here, even though the aircraft were down to less than 500 feet. Anyway, it was lucky it was the only bad day of the trip, as we were out and […]
On the way back from the superb AirPower show at Zeltweg towards Vienna, we managed one last hunt for a wreck & relic. This was a AB.204B in a military barracks and was just about able to be viewed from a dead end road. You would need to do your research to find this as […]
Final full day of the trip and the second air show. This report is for the museum ONLY. This was the first day that the weather had turned against us, however it was still warm and did not stop the continuous air show throughout the day. A very well attended event, both by the variety […]
After the excellent museum on the base, it was a walk around the show static and flying display exhibits. You had to be alert and concentrate on everything around you, the flying displays were continuous. On the way back to the van, three of us decided to leave a little earlier to see if we […]
Final airfield of the day and this was in the dark. Fortunately the parachute club members were still about and allowed us to view and take photographs in the hangar. In the dark, the field looked huge and we saw so many glider boxes, I cannot even think how many are based here. I imagine […]

With light fading fast, a few photographs and the log from the evening drive around the perimeter of the airfield. Shame that many of the registration are test registrations, unless anyone else has information to the contrary. However some good ones also had.

Our next point of call was the smaller aircraft at Bad Voslau~Niederosterreich. We were now chasing time, or should I say the remnants of daylight. So here it was a quick look at the three preserved/W&R aircraft, the movements about the field, as well as a peek through the large windows of a hangar from […]
Our first taste of a major airport for a few days, always nice to get some heavy metal. We went on to the public car park 3 with the van and viewed the ramp. You can see a fair way down to the right, although the business jet ramp is not viewable from this vantage […]
After the first Wreck & Relic on a roof, 35 minutes later we were getting our second, this time a military fighter.
