Aviation
The Conquest of Heaven
The fascination for aviation is timeless. Today, as then, pilots experience the laws of flight as something special, complex and simple at the same time. Weather, physics and mechanics show the limits, orientation is also a way to oneself. The smell of oil and petrol, the noise of the engine and the sound of the wind are all too familiar and (usually) strangely reassuring.
None of this has ever changed.

History
Austria is immensely rich in history(s). And each region still has its historically grown local, cultural and manorial characteristics and peculiarities.
Much of it has been preserved and has remained amazingly present - if you know about it and can see it. It is the soil on which we stand and live, its history has shaped the country and its people.
What could be more important and interesting?
