Sounds like a great trip you have planned.

I would also love to hear about it and see any photos you take.

Ha ha, have fun Geoff, it will be a Day to Remember.

Flying will be spectacular as you will fly over Lake Lucerne and the view is breathtaking.

However, when you visit HQ be advised to have some warm clothes with you. Even if the weather is fine down the plain, it's a whole different ballgame up there.

You might even have the chance to be flown in as HQ are a stone's throw from the airport, well, aerodrome to be more precise.

Reporting LIVE from Switzerland..... Came in Monday and spent the day in lucerne. The president of Carl f bucherer is a friend and he took me on a behind the scenes tour of that facility and the big bucherer store in lucerne. Unreal. 3k people a DAY shop there. Biggest and busiest watch store in the world. Makes time machine look like a flea market booth. Crazy. Chilled at the casino and hotel most of the night. Gretzky and I had a little too much wine and such but has another story for another day.
Today, and yes I have hundred of pics and videos. Gotta wait till inhet home so I can post them. AMAZING. Sorry Tom but this trip makes the Reno air races seem like an average Fay. They rented and airfield, had the jet teamdo a private show for us, only 22 of us on this trip. ThenWe sign up for the activities. Ride as passenger on the jet team as they do their routine, fly with the angels stunt team, fly with Nigel in the red bull race plane, wing walk, helecoptor rides through the alps, FLY in the super constellation( only one in the world that takes passengers) and test rides and drives in bentleys with the race drivers. All catertrd of course. Top notch. Tomorrow off to the b01 factory and pics and videos up asap when I get back home.

Well, the Reno Races is a different thing.

Buochs is an exceptional place to be, especially if you have all the place to yourself and you're pampered all day long by Breitling.

Can't wait to see your pics Geoff, especially with that exceptionally warm weather you're having.

No worries, it will be much cooler from tomorrow evening...after the thunderstorms. Lucky you're done with flying.
