Pictures flight top Scandinavia now on-line
Hi guys,
I want to thank everybody who helped with providing information for our flight to Skandinavia in mid July. We didn't get to go to Norway as planned due to a coldfront hanging over the coast exactly those few days we had planned the flight, but we did get to see a lot of Sweden and Finland.
In all it was a wonderful flying experience. What struck me most is that during those 3 days that we flew over Sweden and Finland we only encountered 2 other aircraft ! Another interesting thing was landing on closed airports, apparently this is normal over there ? Getting fuel is off course something else in those cases since we don't have the necessary fuel cards. Don't ever try to do that in Belgium....
I'm still waiting for the pictures of one of the pilots but I have compiled some of the best shots on my website: http://users.telenet.be/bjurn/2006/day1_1.htm page will be updated with extra and new pictures next week (week 30).
