(!!) On Monday we did a flip from Egelsbach (Frankfurt EDFE) to Bremgarten (Black Forest EDTG) to drop a friend off so he could pick up his plane from maintenance. Close to his warf is the famous Meiermotors aircraft service center (http://www.meiermotors.com), which is specialized in historic planes.
They had the hangars open, so I was able to take some pictures: (!!)

Back in Egelsbach those beauties took their nap before geeting airborne again

(!!) Microlighters at its best. (!!)
Autumn takes its toll in the northern hemisphere. Due to IFR/IMC I had to stay grounded and therefore checked my old pictures.
Found this pics from a anual Zeppelin fly-in, which I took some years ago in Bad Honburg.
It was a hot day, therefore they had to wait for the late evening.

(!!) Got no idea. You probably need a sponsor. How about Pfizer. A zeppelin representing the shape of a Viagra pill would attract the crowd, wouldn't it :lol:
