Thanks. I could see my old school (Audubon Park) and my house. Hard to believe - but when I was in Orlando in the 1950's - there were often only 3 airline flights a day at that airport.
Wow, unbelievable... Coming from Europe I was not used to such a busy airspace at all. I had to fly some hours to get used to all of the traffic in the air in the Orlando area...
Thanks for your comment ! This is a great airport to land. Fabulous scenery for sure ! If you train in Microsoft Flight Simulator you may also try LIPV Venezia Lido Airport! Happy landings...
Hello Skywalk ! It depends. The airstrip is not normally open to the public. In order to land there you need to file a communication for a derogatory flight. Sounds funny but this is how they call it. You can get in touch with Trento Tower LIDT. Those people there are very helpful and they will be able to answer your questions. Just make sure you have an explicit permission before you fly to Tonale. Also you need a Mountain rating, at least for regular aircraft like the Husky. Without this MOU rating you are not granted permission - might be different though for UL. For most mountain airstrips in Italy you also need to be a member of the AIPM - ASSOCIAZIONE ITALIANA DEI PILOTI DI VOLO IN MONTAGNA. Check out the web page www.aipm.it The club takes care of the mountain strips and ensures that everything is in order with the authorities. Let me know if you need further information. Happy landings !
Thanks, I really like the approach to this lovely airport. I was flying my Mooney Ovation 2GX. And thank for your comment, I was not aware that I did not really add any useful description - I have entered it now. 🤙
Crazy approach, lose engine power and you’re done, with no place to land. Just insane, when you have no place to go except smashing into people, always come in high. It’s like giving yourself an extra engine in case the only one you have suddenly stops.
Hi ! I absolutely love it too. It is actually just a GoPro 10 with the Max Lens Mod - which in turn is basically just a wide angle lens. However it has a special digital stabilization setting when using this mod.
Sehr gerne ! Lienz und ganz Ost-Tirol ist einfach so schön, ich freue mich immer wieder wenn ich dort sein kann! (Venedig natürlich auch *g) Ich habe gute Freunde in Oberlienz die ich besucht habe und wir konnten ihr Haus beim Überflug sogar erkennen. Viele Grüße !
Thanks for commenting ! There was hardly any wind noticeable during the approach even though a huge thunderstorm cell was closing in from the east. Unfortunately the battery on the Go-Pro ran out just 2 miles before landing 😮
Thanks for sharing this. Most people would be afraid of trolls commenting but I think this is great since this can happen to anyone. It demonstrates how crucial a thorough inspection is of the plane really is.
Well thank you for your comment! .. I just saw it after I started to freshen up this RU-vid channel - Your comment was unanswered for 5 years... 😯 A lot has changed since then...
