Loss Vigo Airshow 2008

Festival Vigo air is now undoubtedly one of the most important aviation events worldwide. Not only known for its coastal location, right on the beach, but for its great variety, organization and number of visitors.

The 2008 edition again surprised. More than 200,000 people gathered on the beach at Samil from 9.30 am to enjoy the performances of classics such as air Piper Colt, the Chipmunk and Stearman who inaugurated the conference.



After them came the Yakovlev aerobatic team of 52 Milano, and Castor Fantoba with Sukhoi to put us all goose bumps with their spectacular maneuvers in the sky. A ship invades the exhibition area and immediately see the helicopter Fishing 1 to get a demonstration of rescue at sea where it became clear the vast expertise and coordination of the entire crew of Pesca 1.

Without giving demonstrations on the sea, a CL-415 43 Group of fire showed up on the beach of Samil for what was undoubtedly one of the best shows throughout the festival. The crowd stood amazed at the maneuverability of the CL-415, not only in air but also in the ditching operations, loading and discharge of water into the sea, demonstrating the great capacity of this aircraft for this type of work.



Turning now to the group of the festival, two A-10 from Germany flew overhead, along with an F-18 Hornet the English Army and a Eurofighter . And this year's premiere, the jewel of the festival, a B1 bomber !. No doubt a real treat for our eyes and they seldom have the opportunity to see a B1 flying ahead of us.

also starred in this block Culebra Patrol with Fantoba and Verlarde as actors, beautiful drawing in the sky, and the always spectacular patrols " handles" and Rotors with Portugal Allouette and ASPA, the helicopter aerobatic team of the English Air Force.



And since not everything could be wings in this festival, the sky fell Paragliders group Air Force and Patrol PAPEA ALAS. Highlighting the great skill shown by these great professional divers who had to face a very windy day, which did not prevent nail all their maneuvers.



To close the festival, once again, as always spectacular, the Eagle Patrol . A perfect performance of this patrol as usual people rose from their seats. Surely a 10 for these professionals, who for nearly half an hour we were speechless, without "dead time" between maneuvers and speaker narrates a very clear and precise.



And finally, from here I send a big hug to the organization of the festival and all the staff for their efficient and orderly work, at the height of an international festival, because we are well aware that such events will not performed alone and needed the work of a year so that everything goes as expected. No doubt the Vigo Airshow is a great example to follow, not only nationally but also internationally.
