  1. Today I did a flight from Pasco to Pullman to Walla Walla to Pasco again. It was my first solo cross country flight. For the most part it was smooth and I had a good time. Walla Walla was a bit windy to land in but I got to park next to my plane I flew when I started my training. All in all a fun day.

  2. Wasn't planned but to my surprise I was asked to conduct a familiarisation flight on the BR23 915 IFR. I guess it's real name is even longer. And so are the checklists which make every A320 look pale...
    Holy moly.
    Bottom line it is nothing but a microlight.
    A microlight with the avionics of a business jet. Really.

  6. After the flight over the Alps, recently, it was time for a "mountain light" flight. Had a look over the #Blackforest and a nice visit of the town of #Freiburg before returning back to the lake.
    Yes, it was #glider weather, again. Tell you what: these canopy flash lights they often have are a thing. Honestly. Really cool!

  10. When you're on FL95, what you don't expect are paraglider several thousand feet above you.
    Describes today's weather pretty well, though.
    You definitely need an improvised Sun protection.

  14. It appears that since recently I'm sitting more often in the right seat. No matter if as PAX or PIC 🤷
    And I tried and compared the A/C with the shortest and with the longest wingspan of our fleet.
    Roll rate, stability and the relation of speed and lift are interesting 🤩

    Our BZF Theory Class Session afterwards was also good fun. Just a few students this time but they seemed happy, I can tell.

  18. The Piper got some new seats.
    Awesome. Had to try them out.
    Some VOR nav training was perfect for the probably last flight of the year.

  21. Lot of energy in the air. Moisture. Temperature.
    Expected some light show in the late afternoon.
    Nothing happened....yet.

  22. Hehe most asked question on #FIS, yesterday: "Can you confirm that the ED-R EM MUC 3 is NOT active?"

    Yeah you better ask if #NOTAM behave differently than announced* in #SUP.
    Good job from both, pilots and FIS.

    Nice flight to enjoy the weather, have lunch in #EDMJ #Jesenwang later Coffee and Tiramisu in #EDNL #Leutkirch and the sundowner at #EDNY.

    *) expected 😝

  23. I am a big fan of this football event taking place from today on.
    All the planes are free. There is enough space in the air. Not much traffic to beware off. Also the roads are free. Good for flying and to take the motorcycle for a spin.

  24. Think I've found the only rain shower and embedded CBs on todays blue sky day.

    Big shout out to the three ATC Ladies on FIS Zurich and Langen/SouthWest today! Awesome job! Was a pleasure talking to you.
