We looked so much forward to this day! http://storeflyvedag.dk/ Several aircraft from Albatros – our flying club http://albatros-ul.dk/– were going, and some of them were also going to participate in the airshow.
A big and pleasant surprise awaited me – Anne, a friend of mine from the island of Funen (Fyn), came to the event in her Savannah! And she brought flowers for me from her garden! I was overwhelmed with joy – ladies will understand my feelings 🙂
Pleasant welcome – flowers from Anne (in front of her Savannah)
And here is Anne herself:
We parked and went for breakfast to the pilot tent.
Some of our aircraft
Many different aircraft were at the show. Duo Discus on the photo below from Frederikssund flying club http://www.f-f-f.dk/. These guys did a lot to promote glider sport – free t-shirts for pilots, flyers, brochures, etc.
Gørløse glider club http://www.glider.dk/ was spotted with this nice aircraft built in 1952:

Bjarne and Lennart did a very nice and daring programme. Unfortunately none of us watching had a camera suitable for recording of this special moment, but we were very proud of being their friends 🙂

Others did ok as well:
There were lots of other interesting things, not only from the aviations world:
Fire brigade car, original from 1940. At that time they were blue:
Edgar, a colleague of mine came by with his family, and got photographed in one of our aircraft:

We had very nice time at the event. Met pilots from other flying clubs, friends and relatives, time flew by.
