If the FLY IN Air France organized by the association FLY IN LFBK is the annual meeting of the pilots of the group Air France and their friends passionate with aeronautics, it is also, for them, the opportunity to show their planes, often old and very well restored. They expose them but also fly them for most great pleasure of spectators invited to admire them, one afternoon, during an aviation meeting.

This is the way the aerodrome of Saint-Yan, well known professional pilots, welcomed them, on Saturday, June 13th, by summery weather. But, because there is always one but, the weather report was not there the day before and almost 150 planes remained nailed on the ground, at first, because of thunderstorms on the French massifs. Small hundred was able all the same to move and to offer a quality show.

On the ground, the organization had invited the other associations or the bodies as the Air Force, Aviation without border, the Network of the Sport of the Air, and the Departmental Association of the Radio hams in the Service of the Civil Safety, approved for the search for the aeronautical distress beacons. Even the trainees of the ENAC took advantage of it to throw a look.

The president of FLY IN LFBK, Béatrice de Reynal-Paris, and Patrice Reverdy, ex chief of subdivision airports in the direction of the northeast civil aviation, manager of exploitation du SYAB by interim, had the visit from André Accary, president of departmental council of Saône-et-Loire, Carole Chenuet, president of the commission economic development and territories(…), Jacques Rebillard, deputy chairman of the Regional Council of Burgundy, Georges Bordat, vice-president of the SYAB, Jacques Aboulin, director of the ENAC of Saint-Yan and Grenoble, and Pierre Berthelin, president of the ADRASEC71.

After the static exhibition of aircrafts, the public was able to admire the individual demonstrations or in duet of pilots experimented, often titled by national or international championships, commented or in music. The photos which follow speak better than the words.

The public is not come in large numbers as well as the organizers waited for him but he was able to take advantage of it completely.

See you next year !
