Dübendorf is despite its name not a village but a town with a population of 25’000. Located some 10 km away from downtown Zurich and the international airport of Zurich-Kloten it is very well connected by public transport to those places as well as to the famous tourist spots in the vicinity with their wide range of attractions.
Even today Dübendorf is best known for the airfi eld, which was the airport of Zurich in the early days of the commercial air traffic. Nowadays Dübendorf airfield is an airbase of the Swiss Air Force and the home of the worldwide famous Ju-Air operating 3 fully airworthy Ju-52 aircrafts built in the early thirties of the last century.
The environment of the F3A World Championships 2015 will be unique in many ways. Dübendorf Airbase provides the participants from all over the world with a perfect fl ying fi eld, excellent runways and a modern infrastructure. But there is even more: The Airbase Dübendorf was host of the very fi rst F3A World Championships in 1960 (it was called RC-1 at that time).

Today, after more then 50 years it is high time to return to the roots of radio controlled aerobatic competition. Besides the Swiss Evening on Wednesday night August 12, 2015 will become legendary of its own.
For all these good reasons we are expecting large crowds of visitors during the entire event. Hence plenty of car parking areas will be available at all times.
