For my commercial pilot license I had to fly a 300NM trip. We planned this trip a lot of times, but the weather this winter wasn't really good for VFR flying. So after a couple of months we finally had the chance to fly the 300NM trip. Destination: Berlin! We planned the first part of our trip from Lelystad (EHLE) to Höxter-Holzminden (EDVI). The second part of the trip was from Höxter (EDVI) to Allstedt (EDBT), which is an VFR field nowadays, but used to be a miltairy airfield. The old runway is still in use, although the current runway is now drawn on the old runway and it's a little bit shorter (1200m) now. The last part was from Allstedt (EDBT) to Schönhagen (EDAZ). We flew with two aircraft to Berlin. It took about 7 hours to get in Berlin (with some rest at our two stops), with an actual flying time of 3 hours and 50 minutes. Enjoy!

This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

Nice pics, not so much for the aircraft, but for the old military infra structure! Nice!
