Flygfesten presents Jörgen Davidsson, Steppen Sonestedt, and Kenneth Öhrn with a three-ship Tiger Moth formation! The de Havilland Tiger Moth is a two-seat British biplane designed in the 1930s to be used as a training aircraft. The plane served in the air forces of many countries all the way up to the 1950s, and even today, many examples are still flown privately.
It’s not really something you can sum up in a single image but it deserves its own program slot! The fireworks that wrap up Friday evening’s entire air show program. Were you there last time and thought, 'This can’t be topped'? Oh yes it can. This year, we're going even bigger!

Father and son, Daniel and Max Casselby, are coming to the Flygfesten airshow and will be flying their model aircraft — a half-scale Clipped Wing Piper Cub powered by a 275cc twin engine, and an Edge 540 with a 120cc twin engine.
In their day jobs, they work as drone pilots, filming cool sequences for the film industry, among others!

Johan Tiger is coming to Flygfesten with his MTO Sport Gyrocopter!
But what exactly is a gyrocopter? A gyrocopter, or autogyro, is a unique type of aircraft that looks like a mix between a helicopter and an airplane. It is propelled forward by a propeller, while the rotor spins freely in the air to generate lift. This makes it incredibly stable, slow-flying, and capable of very short takeoffs – truly a hybrid between a helicopter and an airplane!

This iconic twin-engine medium bomber from World War II, renowned for its role in the daring Doolittle Raid of 1942, is one of the most dazzling aircraft ever built in the United States. Powered by two 14-cylinder radial engines from the Curtiss-Wright Corporation, delivering a combined output of over 3,400 horsepower, it reaches top speeds exceeding 500 km/h.
The Flying Bulls' B-25J, built in 1945, has been meticulously restored to perfection and gleams with its high-gloss polished aluminum body. Its distinctive glass nose dome and glazed rear section not only offer a historical experience but also some of the most sought-after photo opportunities in their fleet.

With 1,425 horsepower and a top speed of 630 km/h, this classic warbird delivers an airshow that combines elegance, precision, and a sound that makes the ground tremble.
The flying bulls and Eskil Amdal flies with the F4U Corsair all three days at Flygfesten! The Corsair is one of the most iconic fighter planes from World War II and the Korean War. With its distinctive bent wing, powerful engine, and rugged construction, it quickly became a favorite among U.S. Navy pilots and a feared enemy in the air.
The Corsair first flew in 1940 and became the first single-engine American fighter plane to exceed 400 mph (640 km/h). Thanks to its folding wing design, the Corsair primarily served as a carrier-based fighter and attack aircraft.

Finn Terje Skyrud and Lars Ness are flying the Bücker Bü 131 Jungmann at the Flygfesten air show, a German training aircraft developed during the 1930s.
The aircraft was built using a combination of steel, wood, and fabric. Test flights revealed excellent performance, and it became popular both with civilian flight schools and in the German air force, the Luftwaffe. The model was also exported to countries such as Hungary and Romania, and was license-built in places like Switzerland and Japan.
During World War II, the plane was used not only for training but also in night raids against Soviet forces, as it could carry small bombs weighing 1–2 kilograms. Despite the war, many examples survived, and production continued – as late as the 1950s, the model was still being produced in Czechoslovakia under the designation C.4.
