Leg 3: Bishkek (UCFM), Kyrgyzstan to Nur-Sultan/Astana (UACC), Kazakhstan


Summary

Leg 3 sees me going from Kyrgystan to Kazakhstan. Once again the weather is with me - not sure how long this will last. Properlt flat terrain for this leg as we are well over the flat plains now. Another straightforward leg, without incident, and a decent landing actually. Hard to tell if the wheels are down and sometimes it feels like I;m bouncing on the runway whereas it is actually the suspension travel.
