Flying with Arnd and Michael

Blessed by the phantastic weather, today it was Arnd Bennninghoff and Michael Munz from Holtzbrinck eLab to have the confidence in me to be their pilot for phantastic ride over Bavaria. Our group photo in from of D-EIYN, the callsign of our Cessna 172.

After taking off from Augsburg, we headed in south-western direction to land at the pittoresque airport of Leutkirch-Unterzeil. Here the final approach, bit steep, but engine idle and flaps full brought the flying monster smoothly for touch-down after the landing threshold.

For recreation we had some ice cream in the legendary “Propellerstüberl”.

After the take-off we headed to the Alpes, as for some on the course we stayed clear from the Zugspitze, but got a nice impression from the Eibsse from a nice lateral angle.

Next heading towards Walchensee,

then Starnberger See, and the city of Munich.

I had the impression that the guys enjoyed it. I couldn’t trace and wetting of panties or puking in the cabin ;-) Who wants to see the entire picture-set: voilà. And the pic of the day, save the best for last:

    Hi Nina,

    sure, if you are around Munich and I am not in India, I guess it would be mandatory to go flying :-)

    Regards
    René

    don’t like travelling by plane at all. But the flight with Rene last month was marvellous. Even if you live in Bavaria you will be deeply impressed by the view onto the lakes and mountains! Strong recommendation!

    Wow, looks like somebody had fun. Landing procedure in Leutkirch with a “sliping maneuver” ? ;-) Cheers, Michael
