The year 2009 was rich in pictures. I enjoyed working again on this footage filmed in 2009. Spectacular jet team displays with the Red Arrows, the Turkish Stars, the Patrouille Suisse, the Breitling Jet Team (whose I saw 4 times the display in 2009 : Montreux, Airpower, Ferté-Alais, Kestenholz) and the Flying Bulls with their Zlín Aircraft Z-50 L. It was also a year with stunning helicopter projects like the portrait of the K-Max of the swiss company Rotex AG, the Mil-Mi26 with the transportation of the new catamaran of Alinghi, the displays of the Sikorsky CH-53 Sea Stallion, the Agusta of the Belgium Air Force and the BO-105 of the Flying Bulls. Without forget the amazing others performances with T6 Eichorn, Bucker Jungman, Yak18, Stearman, Spartan,… and finaly the exclusive footage filmed during the Axalp with the Swiss Air Force F5-Tiger, F/A-18, Cougar and EC635.

I have been traveling all around Europe visiting spectacular airshows such as Flying Legends in UK, Ferté-Alais in France and Airpower in Austria. My aviation connections provide me regular opportunities to shoot air-to-air sequences from aircraft, helicopters, gliders and hot air balloons. I've filmed over 70 hours of footage on the airshows in 2009. Have a look on the first showreel about the year 2009 below : The legend of the Warbirds.

I was in UK at the Waddington Airshow 2012 for my project with the Swiss F/A-18 Hornet. On Saturday I've also filmed a few sequences of the RAF Chinook display. Stunning demonstration.

I’m working on a new short-film about the Swiss F/A-18 Hornet Solo Display and the pilot Ralph «Deasy» Knittel. I filmed the first sequences two weeks ago at the Bodo Airshow in Norway. Here a first trailer with the first RAW-footage. Music and color grading should be different in the final project. Many thanks to Ralph "Deasy" Knittel and Swiss Air Force, to the ground crew and to the organizers of the Bodo Airshow.
