Organised by Peter-Niels-Vagn spouses & friends

The annual massing of the European AYA membership took place May 27-31 at Grenaa, Denmark. It was a huge success, with the biggest-ever attendance of both aircraft, 34 plus a Seneca thing, and people, 91, including the P-driving bloke.

Grenaa Airfield is a small grass airstrip on the east coast of Denmark, very close to Arhus. The strip was beautifully prepared, smooth, and just about long enough to cope, but it did require care and attention during the landing phase. Some pilots elected to land at the nearby Arhus airport. Everyone landed safely and without too much bother.

People came from all over the place:

Switzerland, Iceland, Germany, England, Scotland, Wales, The Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, and America. A first for our European fly-in was the presence of our very own AYA President Fran Levy and her equally famous hubby, Ron, as well as fellow American guests Don and Cathy Cochran, the perennial Europhiles Ed and Pat Manning, as well as two displaced USAians, Jack Majer and Pedro Martinez. The support from overseas was very encouraging, and we hope to see very many more of our U.S. members next year.
