- Airfield Guide: Sion
In the Rhône valley, in the centre of the Valais region and nearly integrated with the city of Sion, lies this combined military and civil airfield.

- Canadian Warplane Heritage is forty!
The year 2012 marks the 40th Anniversary of the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum and to mark this occasion, we present you the first article on this world famous collection of, mainly airworthy, historic aircraft. Their history and that of the people who restore, maintain or fly these birds will be
highlighted in this and the coming article. We are going to start right at the very beginning.

- Picture writing ... Devine Jetliner: Dassault Mercure
A quick glance at the aircraft above and one might think that this is another Boeing 737-200. When examining the design closely, it appears to be larger than the Boeing model. Furthermore,
the exhaust of the engine looks differently as well. One is looking at the Dassault Mercure.
