New pages: The 1910 Genève/Viry meeting

Postby Anders » Wed Jul 22, 2026 7:11 pm

Hi everybody!

I have just uploaded the pages about the August 1910 "Semaine d'Aviation de Genève". It was an unusual meeting, organized by Geneva organisations, but not in Switzerland. It was staged at an airfield in Viry, in France close to the border.

It was a relatively minor meeting, 12 pilots entered 14 planes, and in the end only eight pilots scored any official flights. The big stars were Stefano Amerigo, who won the total flight time contest, and Émile Taddéoli, who impressed the crowds with the most spectacular flight.

You will find the pages here! As usual: If you find any errors or anything missing please contact us!
