Zeltweg; Airpower at its best.

Post by docman »

This was my third visit to Zeltweg and it justified a 0500 start from Graz. The usual arrangements for "Spotters" were excellent, with some traditional Austrian fare for breakfast included. I only managed the Friday (previous attendance on Saturdays had suggested the place would uncomfortably crowded. With the Styrian mountains as a backdrop and the bonus of the sun over your shoulder it is the perfect location for an airshow!

Great photos. Do you know what the story is behind the sycamore? It seems an unusual choice for a warbird.
