Flight 19's European Vacation

[Willy]

We've decided to aimlessly wander around Europe and see what we can find. Took off from Groningen, Holland and headed up to Copenhagen Denmark. Sure is a lot of fog around here this time of year....

Rgr on the fog up in the northern territory this time of year. They got some giant bridges to drive on too, dang!

Found a suitable ride. Promised the owner I would ferry it back to Australia...someday.

Think I'll nip up to the roof platform and get the Bofors greased up.............

After finding the back seat full of haggis, I traded the Cessna in on a Aero Commander 500.....

We survived the Bofor bombardment and made our way to a chilly Poland.

Nice flight to Poland. Spring has come to at least part of Europe.

Had an old friend show up tonight to fly with us from Poland to Lithuania?. Nice flight although the usual Flight 19 weather was waiting for us at EYPA and we couldn't see the runway until we were almost on top of it.

Roger on an old friend showing up. Got a couple of kodaks, along with the usual approach-in-the-heavy-fog shots.

Howdy CNs,

Should be joining up with you all tonight. Been down in North Africa flying trying to make a few bucks for the old warchest. Picture, the plane I will be flying tonight, but with winglets.

Another day, another fog shrouded airport in Eastern Europe. This time flew from Palanga (EYPA) to Vilnius International (EYVI) in Lithuania. A pleasant flight, and we're headed into land covered by forests now, more or less.

[Willy]

Great flight across Lithuania to Vilnius with another old friend showing up.

[Willy]

We had a full house tonight and a great flight to Riga. Here's a few pics....

Howdy all,

Well, it’s sure nice to be back in the cockpit again after a long hiatus. Let me tell you this, this was one very interesting flight. The radio chatter covered a wide range of topics, including the some of the local words in some of the weirdest translation I have ever heard. But all in all it was a very nice and fun flight. The picture show all pilots parked at Riga with the exception of vW who was on final approach.
