ABOUT ME
My journey began with a simple passion for aviation and filmmaking. It all started in 1991 at Zurich Airport when I first saw a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 in Swissair colors. Growing up in a "Swissair family," with my grandfather and uncle in the airline and inspired by my father’s filming, I developed a deep love for aviation and storytelling.
After Swissair’s grounding in 2001, I felt compelled to capture Zurich Airport’s spirit through film. Starting in 2008, I began producing aviation movies, refining my skills with each project. A milestone came in 2010 with "Zurich Airport - Summer Time," a co-production with fellow enthusiast Beat Reber, blending stunning footage and music to great acclaim. Memorable projects included capturing the first Singapore Airlines A380 landing in Zurich and a Training film showcasing an Airbus A330-300 in action.
Though times and platforms have changed, my passion for aviation storytelling remains.
I am Andy Ruesch, and this is my ongoing journey through the skies and creativity.
