The last on-site summer party in Dietenhofen took place in 2019. After three Corona-related cancellations and digital replacements, it was finally time again on Saturday.

As always, the Wings collectors were of course in the minority. But they were very well looked after by the Wings product management.
Besides the SIA special model 529051-001 A350-900 9V-SJD (already mentioned here), there was the possibility to buy samples, which were never produced as a regular model (a few pictures will follow later) as well as „normal“ samples.
And in the store and in the museum some upcoming novelties were also „hidden“.
