Very nice shots

I like the overhead shots Peter, taken from the nr 10 spot on the Scramble airport guide? I wanted to check out that spot last week but eventually didn't manage to do so. I stayed last week at Unterbach, 100 m from the runway or so. In between the showers I took quite some pictures. Here are a few, more to be found at my website: http://foto.viny.nl/#7.0" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;























And some nightflying. Not the best pictures, taken without tripod.

Pastoral surroundings....

Planecrazy, Porters with badges are new to me. Do you have any detail shots of the badges or can you show us a crop of them, please?

Thanks,
Herbert

i have made a crop of the markings on the pc-6, it is not really clear , but the right one is from LT Staffel 7(looks like the one in the scramble orbat is not correct anymore), and the left looks like a parachute with also a 7 on the bottom.

The badge on the right is indeed the current Staffel badge. I'm not sure about the left one though. It could be an unofficial Staffel badge or a badge from one of the support Staffels or Companies associated with LT St 7.

The structure of the Swiss Air Force has indeed changed quite a bit from what is still published on the Scramble Orbat. Most of the Geschwaders have vanished by now and most of the Staffels are now under direct command of an Air Base Command (Flugplatzcommando).
