Our fly-in location on the 2nd of December was Aix les Bains Airport in Chambéry, France, picked by amerrir, who placed second in the screenshot contest with an exciting shot from the Poland fly-in a while back - click here to view the pic. Even though there probably wasn't that much snow in France in reality, I decided to use the Winter World textures for this fly-in - the Alps should look snowy in winter, after all! Apart from flying in from Paris and then exploring the area around LFLB in a Mirage 2000 fighter and a balloon, I also tried out the Mont Blanc helicopter landing challenge... take a look at the screenshots to see what happened!
