ALPA MILI - Swiss Air Force will support some alps with fresh water


Like in 2015, many alps in Switzerland have again not enough water for the cows and other animals. After an hard winter and not much rain thereafter, the water sources are limited. Swiss Air Force will help and use Super Puma / Cougar helicopters with Bamby buckets in support of the civil helicopter companies.

Super Puma Display Team cancelled the displays in Kreuzlingen and Rapperswil for this weekend in support of ALPA MILI !
EDIT 21.08.2016: Also the displays im Zeiningen amd Dittingen are cancelled !

Some lakes received temporary restrictions for swimming / boating, duration is 1 to 3 weeks, here are those in Canton of Fribourg (Canton of Vaud and Berne are also in the program, but you have to search for yourself then):
