The Axalp Targets as seen from a plane
If you’re an airshow fan, you probably already heard or (or went to) the Axalp. If not, let me give you a short description. This airshow takes place in the Swiss Alps, in the region of Brienz. The site is not exaclty friendly and the spectators have to walk for one an a half hours in the Alps to reach it…

Spectators are installed on top a ridge, and can see the targets. Yes, targets. Not only the army displays flying aircrafts, but the program also includes air-ground shootings. Want more ? As the planes come along a valley, the spectators can see them flying by at same level.
After the shootings, the pilots dive behind the ridge where the targets are located. You can find spectacular pictures by googling “Axalp” for pictures. But there is something you won’t find that easily: a view of the targets… from the air.
