The Big Day (no sound)

It shows the annual flying competition in the Swiss Alps at over 2000 m above sea level in the 40s on the Tschuggen in Arosa. The trophy was the "Eagle of Arosa".
The competition is still being continued today in a slightly modified form. Unfortunately, the number of participants from back then can no longer be achieved today in any way.

Amazing. Hope most of those models had spare tailplanes; none of the retrievers seemed to be looking for them ...
