From 13th to 15th of may, the Swiss Air Force made an exercise called REVITA. With four F/A-18 and four F-5 they made some flights from the sleeping base Buochs. Normally this base isn't in use for the Swiss Air Force. Only some small single props, gliders and some business jets as well are flying f...

1st of may, the PC-7 Team was flying some training units over Buochs AB. I was there and saw the team flying with some smoke (only 2 aircraft). Later there should fly 7 aircraft with smoke. I'm looking forward to see the whole team flying with smoke this season. That day was some other traffic at Bu...

The french Mirage F1CR came for an over night stop to Payerne, 27/03/14 to 28/03/14. I planned it long time ago to go to Payerne those days and I was quite happy, when I knew, that the Mirages came for a visit. I knew the arrival time and the time, when they would leave Payerne. With those informati...

20th of march I was inside Alpnach AB together with some other photographers to take some pictures. We knew, that the german air force was on the base with a CH-53 helicopter.

Last friday a had the time to drive to Emmen AB near Lucerne. Because I knew about the testflights of two Hornets with the AMRAAM-dual-launcher, it was quite a little bit special that day.

Normally I visit the air base that is in use for the WEF-missions only on saturday. This year I changed my usual worktimes.... I went to Sion on wednesday.
