this weekend the "heli airshow" took place at Phalsbourg, ca. 150kms from Luxembourg. Visited today from 12.15 to 15.00; not very easy to get good photos as the fences were very close around the aircraft or missing at all, causing the public to block photos. Managed to take some shots, but a lot of patience was needed for that.
Entrance was only EUR 3 and shuttle busses from the parking to the show drove with short intervals, so not a lot of waiting.
