During 14-17 June, the world's first STOL competition on a beach was held on the Albertstrand in Knokke-Heist. This 75% scale replica of the Fieseler Fi 156 Storch was the overall winner, with a combined distance of 28.3m (landing 13,8m, takeoff 14,5m). Meaning that this aircraft landed AND departed within 28.3m. Quite impressive to witness and an honor being part of the event crew.
