Organizers and participants were preparing for the night’s change of scenery. “It just came to our knowledge then. Why the weather on Friday not Saturday?” Lamented Algimantas Žentelis, one of the participants of the celebration, the director of the Kaunas Aeroclub.

The organizers and participants prepared a replacement version of the celebration on the eve of the celebration, according to forecasts until 4:00 p.m. visible rainy weather. Synoptics are said to be wrong once a day, but this saying has not been confirmed. The predictions have come true and the vacation schedule is changing.

However, the main change of the aviation festival was the very idea of ​​leaving the S. Darius and S. Girėnas airfields to the spaces of the city of Kaunas.

“It just came to our knowledge then. We thought about how to organize an aviation festival in Kaunas like, for example, in Budapest. That the celebration would take place in the city itself and would be a big announcement for the city and Lithuania. In Budapest, during the aviation festival, the houses, the roofs and the banks fill with spectators, like a swarm. What an interest, because there is something to see and enjoy: flights directly over the water, under the bridges. Since I was in Budapest and I saw it, I really believe that Kaunas needs such an event ”, A. Žentelis is convinced.

We thought about how to organize an aviation festival in Kaunas like, for example, in Budapest. That the celebration would take place in the city itself and would be a great announcement for the city and Lithuania.

According to the pilot, in the spring, approaching May, he offered flights in the city before Kaunas’s birthday.

“We put a crown on Kaunas. The first pancake was in May. We have to show something in one place and fly around Kaunas to another place, then we show something there and keep flying. This is how the idea of ​​doing an aviation festival came about not at the S. Darius and S. Girėnas airfields, but everywhere “, – A. Žentelis mentioned the beginning of the idea.

The pilot believes that there will be 27 loops for the Lithuanian Freedom Day, the flight over the city of Kaunas in 9 places will definitely be. 27 loops will take place for the first time in various locations in Lithuania.

The festival organizers did not hide the representatives of the Kaunas Cultural Center and the fact that such departure from the airfield was conditioned by the possible risks of the COVID-19 pandemic.

There won’t be as many people gathered for various performances in Kaunas as they would gather in one place at the airfield, so the spectators will feel safe.

Both the organizers and the airmen urge Kaunas residents to look up to the cloudy sky from time to time, because it will be possible to see planes flying through the sky from many places in the city.

The organizers promise to update the Festival of Aviation program every hour: https://www.facebook.com/events/302651197716358/?post_id=313167359998075&view=permalink
