The first gliders are loaded and on their way.

This year the gliders will be brought to Bitterwasser in two groups. At the moment no forwarder can guarantee when the containers will arrive. Therefore we have decided to send four containers a little earlier so that they will actually be in Bitterwasser on November 01 for the start of the season.

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.

Christmas in Bitterwasser – at 33°C and glorious sunshine

In Europe Christmas is usually associated with cold temperatures, early sunsets and, in the best case scenario, snow. In Bitterwasser, the world looks very different.
