Hello everyone Last month I visited for the 1st time Castelo Branco (Portugal) aerodrome. There's not much going on here but on the 11th of May the annual Beiras Airshow took place and that drawn a lot of GA aircraft.

Thanks for the throutlly explanation. Ladder it is! And indeed a good system if you can return it at the end of the trip.
