14th May was also the open day of the local flying club, Aeroclub Volovelistico Lariano, with a small historical fly-in:

The SEA Risen, the fastest ultralight in the world, was visible in the static display.

From 22th April to 1st May, the same gliderport hosted the Italian Club Class Championship 2017, an air rally for older gliders whose performances are not comparable anymore with more modern gliders.

The top scorer, whose race was not valid for the Italian championship due to him being a Swiss citizen.
