There are many airshows around the world, but few are held in a venue as spectacular as AXALP, an annual event in Ebenfluh, Switzerland.<\/p>\n

Unlike other festivals, which are held at airports, air bases or coastal locations, the AXALP takes place in a shooting range located in the middle of the Alps, at an altitude of around 2,300 meters<\/strong>, next to Axalphorn Peak. This offers aircraft photographers an unbeatable place to take the most spectacular photos of aircraft flying between the mountains. This year's festival started yesterday with a dedicated day of trainings<\/a>, and another two dedicated to exhibitions between today and tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Some regular participants in this airshow are the Swiss Air Force's F\/A-18C Hornet fighter-bombers<\/strong>, whose pilots often demonstrate their great skill flying through the rugged geography of their country. British photographer Dafydd Phillips<\/a> posted a video today of the day of rehearsals held yesterday, in which we can see two F\/A-18C making spectacular maneuvers between the mountains<\/strong> and also launching the flares used to mislead infrared guided missiles:<\/p>\n
