Norway lengthwise in a Cub (pics)

I fly in a vintage flying club, and we operate two ex-Norwegian Army Cubs, two Tiger Moths, a PT-19 Cornell and a Chipmunk, and some of our pilots also fly a privately-owned Bird Dog, a Broussard and a T-6 Texan. All those planes flew from Kjeller Airport (ENKJ) to Bodø (ENBO) in northern Norway last weekend for an airshow. This is a flight of about 500nm. I fly the Tiger Moths and the Cubs the most, and I flew the Cub for this trip. Just thought I'd show you some pics of the beautiful Norwegian coastline, and our planes
In addition to that, I got to meet a Norwegian WWII Spitfire pilot, who commanded 332 sqdn at North Weald, Wilhelm Mohr. He signed the baggage hatch of one of our Tiger Moths, alongside the signature of Eric "Winkle" Brown, which I got last weekend at another airshow
