Five years of flying fun is documented. I will continue flying, but this blog is no longer being updated. Follow me on Wingly.

Celebrating a flying pioneer

Lars (over) after beaching LN-AEG at Baldersnäs. We arrived as plane #14 at the Swedish Seaplane Association Fly-in weekend and air show, celebrating the flying pioneer Albin Ahrenberg (1889-1968).

Unlike Norway, you are free to fly in and out of most Swedish lakes and rivers.  

SSA president Kjell Sandberg and his crew are doing a great job defending these privileges. On the picture he is sitting next to the only person attending the Fly-in that had actually flown with Ahrenberg, when she was five years old.

Lars and I left Saturday, and we had to go before the main course at dinner in order to make it back to Oslo before dark (19:30Z).
