The 6th User Congress took place in Graz, Austria, from 15. to 19. September under the patronage of the Austrian Defence Forces and the Austrian Chamber of Commerce. 89 participants from 27 different nations attended the event. On the 16. and 17. September, 24 excellent lectures focussed on the motto “CLOSE TO REALITY – Advances in Flight Physiology Training.” were presented. A technical tour to the Austrian air base “Fliegerhorst Hinterstoisser” in Zeltweg concluded the event. We visited the aircraft museum and had the opportunity to see demonstrations of a newly developed UAV and of all Austrian aircraft and helicopters in service. We are already looking forward to the next User Congress in 2019.
