Those aircraft owners who arrive later in the season will then load their aircraft in mid-September.
With dry weather and overcast skies, loading at the new site in Waghäusel was very easy, thanks to the excellent preparatory work of Lothar Wittig.
The containers are now going to Antwerpen and will be loaded onto the Green Mountain.
Flying 1000 kilometres on Christmas is a great gift for any pilot. Four pilots fulfilled this wish with over 1100 kilometres on a day with unexpected possibilities. Simon Schröder and Max Schäfer flew a whole 1400 kilometres with the EB28 on Christmas Eve. In the following, they report on their flight.
Our Line-Boys are doing a valuable job again this year.
During the season, when there is always a lot of activity, the experienced Line-
Boys (easily recognisable by their red clothing) contribute to smooth flight
operations.
