Day 4: 1997-05-23

ATW Retro-blog: 1997-05-23
Schönefeld (DE) – Warsaw (EPWA – PL)
283nm; 3h25; Hughes (833) / Purchase (962)

Rain and low vis initially - not off until just after mid-day. WP962 giving cause for concern as its oil pressure fluctuated between 40 and 60 psi (Vicar - take note!!).

This was Cadet Warrant Officer Stephen Kirtley's final leg before returning to the UK, so he was given the right seat of the Islander and allowed to practice his flying skills. Polish beer was given top marks.


Sunshine at last, at Warsaw


Day 4: EDDB-EPWA 283 nm, 3.42 hrs, GS 83 kts. Cumulative 946 nm, 10.67 hrs, Average GS 89 kts.
