Today was the Pilatus tour at Stans Buochs~Nidwalden. However I have not completed this report and it will be posted when complete.
The rest of the afternoon was a rare guided tour of Grenchen~Solothurn plus a few other fields before the departure point for many of the group from Basel-Mulhouse~Haut-Rhin.

No photographs as it was dark. A few tomorrow on my departure day.
Most of the group were off back to the UK, however two of us stayed the extra night, as we had no connecting flights for Manchester. We could do that tomorrow.
Noted between 1700-1800hrs
Stored near Swiss hangars pending rebuild.
