How do you come to this conclusion?

It seems that you are the only one with this opinion.

..worst?
 
maybe I'm been particularly fortunate with this edition but if u see the list of partecipants in this link
http://www.wolf-hirth.de/ott11_en/teilnehmer.php
I assure u I saw all of them, and more...the ju52s and antonov took off and landed at least 10 time each for touristic rides..
My previous experience in vintage airshow are 7 times Flying Legends. Ok in FL there are 7 spits, 7 P51, 3 skyraider, 3, Swordfish, 4 Hurri, 3 B17, 3 Corsairs the BoB memorial flight a lot of hangars/museums/workshops and 2 miles of stands selling everything but the ticket is 25 or more pounds and u pay apart for visit the flight-line (you stay on the tarmac but planes are 20meters away on the grass). It is undoubtely another dimension, as american airshows (oshkosh or chino I never saw). I think this worth all the 15€ I spent.

This week I happily forgot to frantically hit F5 key looking for a patch and I'm gone with some friends to an air show near Stuttgart.
This is my first time at 'Hahnweide Oldtimertreffen' and I have to admit is quite better than Flying Legend in Duxford.
I post the link for those who don't know it.
http://www.oldtimer-hahnweide.de/home.php

Among the others B25 and P38 Red Bull, Bf109 and Me262, more than 20 oldtimer (Klemm-Tigermoth-Fw44 Stieglitz etc) the complete list of partecipants is on home site. From 09.00 to 19.00 an uninterrupted succession of take off an landing. Shot more than 2000 picts.
Some 4 u, hope u like it. When I have checked them all I'll post more.
Cheers

more to add but.....how to add more than 5 files?

... I`m going there regularly for years already but in the past it was much better !

The display of the planes was much closer to the audience, the BF-109 and other planes that just appeared flying over the airfield this year, where on the airfield in the past years, taking off and landing there, even the B-25 ! This is the first year that the 109 did only come for a fly-by, it`s a pity.
So far it is correct to call it "worst airshow ever".

But nice to see some real warbirds from time to time, isnt it?
:)

... I remember years when you could watch the BF-109 or Mustang so close, you could look into the muzzle of their guns when they were roaring straight towards you, only a few meters off the ground.
You could even feel the propwash and smell the engine when they were passing over your head !

That was a feeling - hard to describe !!! But that was many years ago,...:(
