Daniel Ryfa

Flies

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Daniel Ryfa!
In 2009, he became the European champion in aerobatics. In 2014, he started as a race pilot in the Red Bull Air Race, and during his six years with 22 podium finishes and 7 victories, he became the most successful Challenger Class pilot in the history of the series.
Daniel Ryfa masters the extremes—from the S.E.5 from World War I (which he has even built himself) to the Edge 540, one of the world’s most modern aerobatic aircraft.
And at Flygfesten, he’ll be flying both. Don’t miss it!

F4U Corsair

Flies

The flying bulls and Eskil Amdal flies with the F4U Corsair all three days at Flygfesten! The Corsair is one of the most iconic fighter planes from World War II and the Korean War. With its distinctive bent wing, powerful engine, and rugged construction, it quickly became a favorite among U.S. Navy pilots and a feared enemy in the air.

The Corsair first flew in 1940 and became the first single-engine American fighter plane to exceed 400 mph (640 km/h). Thanks to its folding wing design, the Corsair primarily served as a carrier-based fighter and attack aircraft.
