... no major probs with Latvia, Estonia or Lithuania for VFR traffic. Controllers' English usually pretty good. Don't be daunted by dozens of staff in military-style uniforms, make sure your flight-plans are detail-perfect and check for fuel availability before you set off. Many airports in the above 3 countries have museums/scrapyards full of stuff from the old Soviet days (Riga best IIRC) Good luck. bm
