100 years of St. Gallen-Altenrhein airfield
Event Information
Description
Since 1926, St. Gallen–Altenrhein Airport has been connecting people, regions and the Lake Constance area. To mark its 100th anniversary, the three-day celebration looks back on an eventful history whilst also looking ahead to the future of aviation. Visitors can look forward to a varied programme featuring air shows, historical and static exhibitions, model aircraft displays and encounters with aviation past and present.
