On the 4th November 2022 members of the Danish Aviators association met for our annual gala dinner. We normally arrive earlier, and meet at the bar for a drink:
It is always nice to catch up and meet old friends:
This year I had an honour to be a bordformand – a chairman role where you make sure people at your table are seen and heard, and nobody is left alone. All bordformænd met at the party room for a short briefing with Anders, the chairman of our association. We also made sure all tables were ready with name tags, etc.
Karsten, our General Secretary, served a glass of port wine:
Later, we had a photo of all bordformænd taken (photo by Leif Bengtsen):
Meanwhile, in the lobby, people were having a welcome drink. We were 180 this time!
And soon the dinner began:

In 2022 we have had 45 new members, of which 27 attended the party. They were warmly welcomed, and received a diploma together with a badge of our association:
The food & wines were very good. For dessert we had passion fruit and rasberry mousse with white chocolate crumble:
In one of the breaks we did our traditional photo of female pilots:
And after the dinner festivities continued with coffee & avec, and a free bar till late night.
It was a great evening! Many thanks to all who arranged it, and to those who attended!
