Flying at night - me too now! :-)

The darkness is coming to an end here in Sweden. Nah, it's not all blonds have went to school, but the summers here are so bright. That is why so many babies are made in Sweden during summer nights. Blond guys actually find their way.

But in my case, who always find my way, I sat waiting in a Piper PA28 for the dark to settle, so I could to my last training session to get my darkness certificate. The sky was almost clear and just a light wind was floating over SAAB airfield ESSL in Linköping. The last bit of light was streaming from the West while I was climbing up to 3500 ft towards Finspång. This last session meant I was flying alone and the teacher was sitting at the club hoping I would make it. I did. So now after doing a touch-and-go at Skavsta ESKN and a full stop at ESSL I am allowed to fly at night/dark.

See ya in the sky!
