AeroSPARX

Flies

Aerosparx from England is returning to Flygfesten in Dala-Järna – and they’re flying all three days!
On Saturday and Sunday, they’ll perform daytime formation flying with smoke, and on Friday evening they’ll light up the sky with their glowing LED lights, fireworks, and a breathtaking formation display you won’t soon forget. Who remembers Aerosparx from Friday night last time?

NATO - AWACS

Flies

AWACS stands for Airborne Warning and Control System – an airborne radar and command system used to monitor airspace, track aircraft, and coordinate military operations from the sky. The aircraft behind the system is the powerful Boeing E-3 Sentry, based on a modified Boeing 707. Its most striking feature is the large rotating radar dome mounted on top, a flying eye with a range of over 400 kilometers. AWACS is used by NATO, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and others, and plays a crucial role in both defense and coordination of aerial operations.

During Flygfesten in Dala-Järna, we’re honored to welcome this technological marvel for a rare fly-by on Sunday!
