his is the Airbase Meiringen LSMM. Located in the heart of Switzerland. Actually near the village of Unterbach in the "Berner Highlands" (Berner Oberland) surrounded by the beautiful Swiss Alps close to Eiger Mönch and Jungfrau. Since closure of Military Airbase in Dübendorf you will see the "Fliegerstaffel 11" Tiger with their F/A-18 Hornets here. F5E Tiger and Pilatus PC-21 can also be often spotted here. See the Tiger livery at the Tower. To protect aircrafts it has unique Cavern-Hangars, use Taxiway G or H to park your plane in front of them.
This scenery is based on own pictures because the nearby Lake of Brienz is an excellent holiday spot for hiking and planespotting. Also the yearly Swiss Air Force demonstration on the Axalp makes this area unique. The "SV Service canteen" in the Fliegertreff is open for visitors and you can get a good lunch for a very reasonable swiss price. From this building you can get up to the visitor terasse.
So a good place to visit in real life.

alle Links zu den F-18- Texturen führen zu "403 Forbidden Sorry, you are not allowed here"
Vielleicht könntest Du das versuchen mit direkten Links in Deiner Beschreibung zu beheben !?

While Switzerland doesn't operate Super Hornets, there is also the DC Designs freeware F/A-18C available here on flightsim.to, and there is a Swiss livery available for it too. Why not use that one? The Super Hornet is really a very different and larger airplane compared to the legacy Hornet.

You are absolutely right, no Super Hornet here. But I was not aware that a freeware F/A-18C is available. So I think I will change, should be as real as possible. Maybe a F-35 in future. So many thanks for your hint

Hi, if we don't have the static Swiss AF asobo F18 livery pack will the F18s appear in whatever liveries we have active? Mine are all RCAF F18s. Thanks.
unglajo10 author
Hi Nighthawk, just download the liveries here from Flightsim.to This will work for sure. Unfortunately I did not test so far what will happen if these liveries are not present.
