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!
