Starting up the blog for real
So I am back on Facebook: new account—same Morre. :-)
I hope this time people will not be "offended" by my pictures and report me. I hope they get a lot of bad karma... Yikes! Probably gave me some bad to just wishing that.
This week has been hectic as usual. Black and white portrait in my "studio" (that is a room in our office), cover shoot for LKPG Magazine with the renowned football player Josephine Öqvist.
Oh! On Tuesday I had my last dual lesson for my dark pilot certificate. That meant a trip with my little sister and the instructor to Norrköping and Skavsta. We did not use my favorite airplane, the Mooney M20J, but a Piper PA28 - a very friendly airplane but slow. When entering Skavsta airspace: "Sierra Echo Kilo India India - please keep up speed. Inbound traffic."
Then I looked over my shoulder and saw some lights behind me. Gaaah!
It is impossible to go fast in a PA28! And seeing the lights of a Boing 737 behind you is... interesting. :-)
Then we heard them over the radio: "Ryanair 473 inbound...". Of course they where far away but you work up some sweat anyway.
So it was: fast approach, when airspeed below 100 kt - full flaps at once, and then we had to start the flare, quick touch-n-go, the right out after climbing above 500 ft. That was fun!
Later, while maintaining 2500 ft, we navigated from Skavsta to Stegeborg, with no navigational aid (the instructor turned them off). Pretty hard in the dark at that low altitude, but I made it.
I better stop this and start to take care of the back side of shooting - all these pictures to deliver.
Happy Easter!
