Staysafe at AERO 2026 – we look forward to seeing you there!

What does FASST-CH or iConspicuity mean? How do I prepare for a flight to Switzerland or the Alps? What do I need to keep in mind when flying my ultralight to Switzerland? What do I need to watch out for when flying in Echo (E) airspace? And what happens if I don’t file my flight plan?

Questions welcome!

A team of air traffic control, airworthiness, and general aviation experts will be on-site at this year’s Aero from April 22–25, 2026, in Hall A5, Booth 224 and will be happy to answer your questions. Get lots of valuable information directly from the experts on the topic of safety. This year, we’ll also have a wide range of safety promotional materials on site, as well as lots of cool gadgets.
