The Swiss Air Force organized an exhibition of a B-17 Flying Fortress and a B-24 Liberator at the Dübendorf civil airfield. The exhibition attracted a lot of interest from the Swiss population and the SBB ran a special train to Dübendorf every day. The proceeds from the sale of tickets (67,753.-Fr.) went to the International Committee of the Red Cross on the express condition of the Americans.
