This was start of a few days in Switzerland, the main targets being a Stans Pilatus factory tour and my first visit to the famous Swiss balloon event at Chateau D Oex~Vaud.
Day one was travel day, with the group members from around the UK getting to the meeting point at Geneva. We were meeting up with Grant Robinson of the Oxford Aviation Group who had
organised / Co-ordinated the tour and airfield visits.
So a quiet day departing from my local airport.
On arrival at Geneva late morning, that allowed us to meet two other travellers and we made our way to the West side business hangars and ramps for better views.
We stayed till around 1600hrs as light started to be lost and the remaining group was arriving from Heathrow at 1700hrs.
After another look around the business jet area in the dark, we made our way over to the hotel before an early Saturday morning start.
