In Friedrichshafen, Germany, from Wednesday 27.4. until Saturday 31.4. After a three-year break, the largest exhibition of general aviation (GA) took place - AERO Friedrichshafen, and LAA ČR was there.

Following the article in Pilot No. 5, we present a short summary and an additional photo gallery.

The LAA CR stand was traditionally in hall B4-102.
In the early evening of the exhibition, I quickly circled the exhibition with my camera in the direction of the arrows on the map.

You can see the result of my quick "flight" through the exhibition in the following photo gallery, I think it will give you a quick idea of what preparations look like right before the start and where to look. Please take into account that most of the stands were still being finished, the photos show the atmosphere of finishing touches and preparations just before the opening.
This year is an even year, so glider manufacturers are not participating, so the exhibition was optically poorer, but let's be glad that it is!
During the exhibition, no one asked us for a covid pass, masks were not mandatory at the exhibition site, only recommended.
As we already wrote in the article in Pilot, it is not possible to describe the exhibition in detail, it must be visited. The following photo gallery provides a better overview of what was on display at AERO this year
