J-3006 @ LSMF - Mollis used to be one of the fighter bases used for exercises only. It was quite compact and easily accessible for taking pictures. Nowadays it is only used by helicopters for three weeks a year. - by Joop de Groot

J-3006 @ LSMJ - Turtmann was an airfield with a strange lay out with a public road between the runway and the taxiway. Note there is no fence between the aircraft and the truck. The runway can be seen in the background. Unfortunately Turtmann was closed in 2003. - by Joop de Groot
