The 35th annual fly-in at Tannheim, southern Germany, now known as Tannkosh, exceeded all previous attendance records. The event, staged from August 25 to 28, attracted no less than 1,481 aircraft from all over the world. Tannkosh is a fine mixture of new and old aircraft, both large and small. A 4,000ft (1,219m) grass runway precludes landing by larger aircraft and jets, but these participate, flying from nearby hard runways. Saturday's 'feast', after the rain cleared, included the SFCA Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation which was en route from Basel to nearby Memmingen, and provided a fine contrast to Airbus A380 demonstrator F-WWDD.
