On September 6 and 7, the skies above Bouzonville (Moselle) had the air of a party like no other. No flying saucers on the horizon, but a joyful array of completely crazy machines: airplanes with funny shapes, machines straight out of comics or cartoons, flying cars, rockets, prototypes never built... and even a flying submarine that made everyone smile!

That's what the Inter-Ex is all about: every year, enthusiasts from Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and France come together to share their boundless imagination. Here, there's no competition or strict rules: the key word is creativity... and a little bit of madness!

And what a show! More than 50 pilots took turns flying over 200 aircraft, each one more astonishing than the last. Between humor, ingenuity, and good humor, Bouzonville buzzed all weekend.

This 39th edition was organized by Les Ailes de la Nied. A first for the club, and what a success! Thanks to President Pascal Tarillon and a team of dedicated and efficient volunteers, the event was masterfully executed. Congratulations to everyone for this wonderful adventure... and thank you for making young and old dream!
