On September 15, the first "Swiss Triumph Day" took place at the Zihlschlacht-Sittersdorf airfield, which immediately attracted a large number of participants from "T" for "Triumph" to ... well ... "T" as in "Triumph". So let's throw five units of any currency into the phrasebook and call it a "triumphant" start. We were there, so we can now present a short review, including a not-so-small selection of pictures.
