I bet I am not wrong about the groups in front being police/military, though. Probably firefighters too, but I bet the SWAT team signed up.

"Teams can sign up for one of four divisions: Public Safety Division (police officers, firefighters, military, etc.), School Division (students/school-affiliated teams), Disability Division (individuals with disabilities), or Open Division (general public). Teams can include family members, friends, co-workers, gym buddies, or other community members. The event is designed for participants of all abilities and ages."

Last weekend, a friend needed one more flight hour for renewing his PPL license, and took me along in a Cessna 152. We flew from #LSPV via Mythen, Klausenpass to the Ringelspitz, and back over Walensee. Beautiful!

Part 1/3: Launch over Nuolen, Mythen, Riemenstaldental, Clariden.

Germany: Drone sightings disrupt Munich airport – DW – 10/03/2025

The disruption comes as Munich hosts its world-famous Oktoberfest beer festival, which runs until Sunday. Last week, Denmark and Norway closed airports due to drones.

What the heck is this? Have the conspiracy theorists gotten in charge of the FAA?

"...Previous news reports said the drones sent by the Department of Homeland Security conducted surveillance on the weekend of June 7 over thousands of protesters demonstrating against raids conducted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The Predators flew over Los Angeles for at least four more days, according to tracking experts who identified the flights through air traffic control tower communications and images of a Predator in flight...."

A black and white portrait photo from the rudder along the right side of a WWII era fighter aircraft. The Rudder is on the right and fills the frame. It has a checker paint pattern. The right horizontal stabilizer and trim tab are partially seen below center on the right. The cockpit canopy is visible at center frame and two propeller blades at to the right. A small part of the right wing is visible on the right side of the frame. The sky is dark from the processing and has a few wispy clouds.

Having a great visit at the museum airfield in Munich. Several types that I've seen replicas of at Omaka. Here is a Taube, which is posed somewhat more dramatically at Omaka.
