Vienna to Prague, Part I. Austria started clear and blue. As I neared the Czech border, however, that changed - film at 11.

Vienna and lovely countryside up to the border

Flight from Vina Del Mar in Chile over to Mendoza, Argentina - via Hwy 68 through Santiago as my visual trail. Flying over the mountains east of Santiago was nice scenery too but I forgot to take any screens from that portion :man_facepalming:t2:

I continued Grand Alpine challenge in WB-Sim C172 in real weather: LSGS :airplane: LSPM :airplane: EDYW :airplane: LOIR… I just realized I touched down in 3 different countries in this flight, Switzerland, Germany and Austria.
I really love flying in Alps. It’s so beautiful. I took off from Sion, but I couldn’t climb high because of the broken clouds. Luckily later the clouds got more broken, because I had to fly over the mountains to next valley. I climbed to 10000ft and then descend to 3200ft as Ambri airport was just 10 nm from the mountains. I did touch’n’go and then climbed over the mountains again. That was lot of flying in circles up and down. Then I just continued through valleys until reaching Germany that is more flat. Touched at Wildberg and continued short leg through nice calm looking valley.

All the landing were very smooth, but approaches were terrible. At Ambri I had to fly through winding valley and I lost situational awareness. I thought that the airport should be after next turn so I started descend, but it was not there. It was 3 turns later.
Wildberg airport was a short grass strip between scattered houses and fields. I flew circuit 3 times before landing, because I lost the sight of runway each time after finishing downwind checklist. Hoefen was relatively ok, but could be more stable.

while yesterday I ended my day to LDZU (Udbina, Croatia)
today started with a flight from LDZU to LDSB (brac island)

then LDSB → LDSA (Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina)

my aircraft was shaking a lot, from the EDM display Cylinder 2 cold, confirmed by the EFB :woozy_face:

decided to fly back LDSB to check closer the issue (I guess I leaned too much for taxiing, I will make some research to see what I may have done wrong)

fixed the engine, back to the air …

Sarajevo :

LQSA → LYNI → LAKU (Kukes, Albania) LAKU → LGIO (Ioannina, Greece)

Took the Longitude from Trondheim Vaernes (ENVA) to Oulu (EFOU) on vatsim:

First try wasn’t that good, I seemed to have chosen a parking spot on the terminal building… :flushed:

But on the second try I was able to fly it:

I had ATC on departure and I had ATC initially on arrival, but after some descent instructions he logged off, so the rest was on Unicom. Managed to put the Longitude down quite okayish, not butter but okay. All together it weas a nice cooloff for a Sunday afternoon.

Full video later here:

Out of Detroit, headed too the nation’s capital KDCA to shoot the LDA19Y! :star_struck:


Bummed I wasn’t able to save the screenshot of my turn to final. That is one crazy approach. Everyone should try it!!

I may have skirted the mall. I was technically still over the Potomic. Don’t tell the feds. It will be our little secret. :zipper_mouth_face: :shushing_face:

Made my first flight in the B787 on my usual practice route from Budapest (LHBP) to Prague Ruzyne (LKPR):

As a first flight it went pretty well, there were some issues, but as I managed to take off, fly the route and land I consider it a success. Landing smoothness was absolutely not due to my skills, it was plain luck, but still it felt awesome.

Video here in an hour or so:

I always love watching Bob Hoover’s old Shrike, Matt Younkin’s Beech 18 and Dave Martin’s Baron aerobatic routines. So, I decided to make a couple of a tribute flight with the new Aero Ae-45 & Ae-145 over Oshkosh, since they are quite agile. The flights included some single engine aerobatics.




I filmed the flight with the Ae-45. At the end I almost got myself into trouble when I had to turn into the dead engine on final…not the best idea :sweat_smile: The video also includes a view from the ground at the end, to get some airshow vibes.
