Around the World VFR (ish) - now complete!

Leg 77 - Prague, Czech Republic (LKPR Ruzyne) to Vaasa, Finland (EFVA Vaasa)


This leg: 1,166Nm, 4:45 flying time
Total so far: 87,129Nm, 334:35 flying time

Today we are heading North from Ruzyne and into Scandinavia. First we are heading to Malmo then turning to the North East and taking in the Oland Bridge and Kungsangen before onwards to Stockholm. Further East from there to the Bomarsund Bridge and Turku Castle before Helsinki. Lastly going North to Ylisto Bridge before finally heading West to Vaasa.

Should be a fun flight. Much better weather in Ruzyne today too.





Pretty flat here in the Czech Republic and the River Elbe


Crossing back into Northern Germany, still following the River Elbe and approaching the Northern coast of Germany






Heading across to Malmo and our first sight of the Swedish coast and the Oresundsbron Bridge






On to the Oland Bridge, the bridge between the Swedish mainland and the island of Oland








North to Kungsangen





East on to Stockholm







Bomarsund Bridge




Into Finland and Turku


Finland is very flat, much like Sweden, at least this far South


Clouds coming in as we come over Helsinki






Ylisto Bridge





Cloudy now as we head towards Vaasa


Landing in this could be tricky




Coming in for approach and a big crosswind






And down, with a big crab on!



Cool flight. Next leg will probably be further North to see more of the Scandinavian sights
