The European Quickstep Flyaway – July 2024 (From the President’s Blog)

The European Quickstep, IFFR’s 2024 “post-Convention flyaway” certainly lived up to its name, visiting four countries in 9 days. The formula, combining the flyaway with the Nordic and Benelux section annual meetings proved popular and successful. In each location IFFR members hosted those attending – 65 members and partners and 16 aircraft on the entire flyaway, with a total of nearly 100, and 22 aircraft participating at some stage.

Day 1 – Friday 5 July
The Quickstep started on the Friday evening – but members had been assembling in Copenhagen over the previous couple of days. The 5 aircraft flying VFR from the UK arrived at Roskilde on the Thursday, to get ahead of the “interesting” weather in Scandinavia on Friday morning, and then spent Friday morning exploring the nearby Viking Longship centre. 13 more aircraft arrived at Roskilde during the morning in time for a light snack lunch, before being bussed into Copenhagen.
