A Short Swiss trip (mil)
After finishing the business in Switzerland I decided to hire a car and do a little tour from Zurich to Emmen, Alpnach, Meiringen and vice versa. The weather started off pretty bad but the next day was blessed with some sunshine.

Flying pretty good.
Didn't catch a glimp of this "new" old Mirage dual flying? Saw that one on the messageboard somewhere a couple of days ago...

pods ands sign
The pods on the F5F as Spacedust mentioned are indeed weird looking, no clue on the purpose.
I had not even noticed the (PC6s not allowed) sign that Mirage 69 mentioned on the PC21 pic myself. A funny sight as these PC21s taxi out of their hangar and after returning simply taxi in again round the back like entering a carwash

The pods on the F-5F; isn't that the standard Swiss towed decoy system? The (smaller) decoy itself on one station, the "mothership" with winch on the other.
The No PC-6 sign probably has to do with the fact that taxiing to/from Pilatus at Buochs crosses a public road and with the limited view of a taildragger plane directly in front and below, there is a risk of for instance a schoolchild on a bike who ignores the traffic lights being turned to minced meat. I assume Porters are either escorted or pulled to and from the runway then?
