Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Fly-In La Cote 20-06-2009

Post by Niek »

On the 20th of June 2009, a Fly-In was organized at the airfield (grass-strip) of La Cote, which is roughly situated between Geneva and Lausanne.
Besides all kinds of Pipers and Cessna's there were also some interesting Oldtimers, as well as a Swiss Air Force Super Puma.

After that we went to Lutry (close to Lausanne). This is where a meeting of seaplanes was hosted. Even though only 3 planes were present, the experience was still quite special.
