Here we go!

The first aircraft have emerged from the containers. They are thoroughly checked by the inspector Bernd and ready to fly.

Now the weather has to be right. It's very cold at night at the moment. The forecast for Monday is 6°C. That doesn't bode well for great weather. But we're sure it will come soon.

1250 km palm tree for Dmitry Borovyk and Anton Minskii

The last season 2023/24 ended with a spectacular highlight for Dmitry Borovyk and Anton Minskii: on the very last day, they managed to fly around three declared turning points that cover an impressive distance of 1250 kilometers. This extraordinary achievement earned them the privilege of planting a palm tree in Bitterwasser - an honor only bestowed on the best pilots. One year later, the two are now returning to Bitterwasser to plant their palm tree in a festive ceremony in keeping with the old Bitterwasser tradition.
