Been In Vnukovo lately late late night.We had planned a short fuel stop (500 liters only),toilett service,Wx,Flight plan and unloading (hehe) our FA and passengers before heading of again to our new "parking position" at different airport.We planed about 60 min for that stop.Deep inside we expected at least 90 minutes minimum.
After 30 min we were looking at each other astoned and could not believe what just had happend to us. For the first time in 1.5 years we were fully ready to go again.(Not cuz we are snail flight but for obviouse reasons at V3)

"Ahh,hang on" we thought,catch 22 with immigration service as usuall.
Just nipping on my coffee and requesting clearance and start up a nice calm
male voice replyed in 3 seconds: VP... ,cleared to ur destination via flight plan route,expect....departure,after passing 200m..... climb.... contact 126.0,
sqwak XXYY, start up approved!!

I nearly spitt my coffee all ova da place and we both thought we were in heaven or different space.What the f.... just happend??

We had no idea and even did not bother to find out. "Lets get the hell ouda here before smth else happens" we thought.
10 min later we took off!!

The end of the story is: Once upon a time........

Now I know that those stories that my mum told me when I was very young
are REAL!!!

Keep it up Vnukovo,you are slowly improving and getting better.

I rate you that late night 5 out of 10!!!!!!!!!!!
(only 5 cuz I still can not believe what happend

Good night to all of you,hope I did not bore you toooo much.
