Furthermore, many small international civilian aircraft, gliders, ultralights and microlights were present. Cakovec, about 100 kilometres Northeast of Zagreb, is a little city with friendly people. It has a small airfield with a grass runway at Pribislavec (LDVC). The airfield hosted an airshow with international participation, organized by Aeroklub Medjimurje. Every year an airshow at this scale is organized in the region. Last year Varazdin - not far from Cakovec - was the location of the event, and Varazdin plans to host a show again in 2008. The show itself is on a relatively small scale, however, worth to visit for those who are nearby or planning a vacation in the area. It is remarkable that the Croatian Air Force did not participate this year. The MiG-21, planned to give a flyby at the end of the day, was cancelled. Because there was a significant participation of the neighbouring country Slovenia, one could actually think that the show took place in Slovenia... Aircraft can be seen from close distance and just like in Varazdin, the airfield and organising staff are open, helpful and welcoming photographers.
