Stunning view (until the rain). Such a shame to see a type younger than me (just, by a few days) retiring.

In the video, you can hear me say (in German, to the passenger next to me) "When you rent a plane in Switzerland, you have to give it back clean". An unintended consequence of the fire service's water arch. To be honest the plane looked immaculate even before boarding.

AMAZING PHOTOS AMAZING PHOTOS!!!!

I wonder what happens to those Avro pilots?? Are they going to be re-trained for other type of planes or are they retiring?

They are retraining on the Bombardier CSeries, which replaces the Avro RJ in the Swiss fleet.
