The original caption claims this is the 'first postwar Fédération Aéronautique Internationale rally'. Old newspapers reveal that no less than 22 or 28 Jodels visited from Bernay (LFPD).

The Jodel D9 was a single seat, open cockpit sport plane that first flew in 1947 in France and plans were distributed to allow amateurs to build the plane. In Germany and Austria this was at first not permitted but in 1958 this was officially allowed. In total some 500 D9s were produced and the D117 was a two-seat development. This plane on display made its last flight in June 2007.
