AXALP 2023 THE GREATEST AIRSHOW ON PLANET EARTH
Ғылым және технология
Practice day For AXALP Fliegerschieassen 2023 on the Ebenfluh shooting range in Switzerland saw an incredible performance from the Swiss air force in their F/A-18 Hornets. In no particular order I’ve included some of my favourite passes and photos from the day.
Enjoy!

Other than Finland, nobody does a better F/A 18 Hornet demo than the Swiss. I really wish the US Navy’s demo team would add some of these maneuvers to their show.

I'd dare rank both Finland & Switzerland at the same spot as far as flying the Hornet goes. Those pilots don't just fly the Hornet, they're the true Hornets.

Huh it's a Marine Corp thing about the Hornet , yeah the Navy has them too. It's all about American Air Power and Superiority anyways

Oh my, everyone at this show has a front row seat. What a beautiful place to fly, and stare at those mountains. Dafydd you are one lucky ( and all the others next to you) person. Those F-18's were so close you could see the rivets. Thanks again for the excitement!
Spectacular 👍

It is about $30k per hour to operate an F18. This is small potatoes but those flare they keep pumping out are $100 each.

This is on my "must see" list. How long does the "walk" up the hill take?
@DafyddPhillips
7 ай бұрын
The walk from the cable car station is about 90 mins to the top. If you can’t get accommodation on the hill you will have to add approx 20 mins bus journey from brienz.
