In Summer 2016 i visited the Austrian Airpower flight festival in Zeltweg/Austria for some photography together with some friends of mine. It was my first visit to a big public festival like this and i was very excited what to see there. Stefan, Robert and Helmut also visited the festival and we met there, Stefan and Helmut got a bit earlier there and already looked for the perfect spot for taking pictures of the whole scene. The Whole place was crowded with thousands of people and it was the perfect weather for an event like this.
Along the military jets you could watch several aerobatics crews flying and showing their talents in flight aerobatic. This was one of the most impressive shows of the day and i liked the frecce trocolori the most, but also the spanish, the swiss aerobatics or the french was brilliant.

Another favorite show was the gliding flight of the Red Bull blanix Team, consisting of 2 very beautiful gliders with acrobatic moves in the air. So not only military shows where done this day also a lot of private flight acrobatic teams where showing their passion.
