... but let's not complain, the reward was great ! The Bardufoss Flight School gave us a unique opportunity !
This is the upper North of Norway, airbase Bardufoss, Flight School where we even saw the Northern light !
Candidate pilots are assessed on their possible skills. We fly today, two Safari's standing by.
A nice example with shark-teeth is being serviced.
A view in the cockpit, still quite analog.
The plane is very stable in the air with a good climbing ability and is nice to handle in the turns.
Major Erling 'Grandpa' Flobak, Commander of the flight school in the right seat this occasion.
Instructor and student sit side by side and have good eye-contact and view on the instruments.
In front: the runway. What a nice view and experience !
Major Erling Flobak. Thank you for this magnificent opportunity !
Still it's half on the day.
... the pictures have been made and it's time for some socialising and interview.
We'd like to thank Major Flobak and his personell who made this flight possible and very worth while !
