• Open House Airlift Wing 61 Penzing in 2017

  As part of the "Bundeswehr Day", the longest-serving flying unit of the German Air Force celebrates its 60th anniversary. At Penzing Air Base, however, there is not only joy about the more than 50,000 visitors on this sunny day. The dissolution of Air Transport Squadron 61 and closure of the military airfield is imminent at the end of 2017.
