Hello all,

 

This weekend was the annual Oldtimer Weekend at the Medlánky glider airport in Brno, Czech Republic.

 

The weather was lovely with Autumn backdrops to shoot some of the action against.

 

What looked like a freshly built Grunau Baby II was the first thing to get my attention upon arrival:
