Sunday 3-Nov-2024 The Hills are Alive with the Sounds of Merlins

Post by Paughco »

Fellow Misfits: This flight was inspired by a flight made by YouTube pilot Stevo1Kinevo. He got a ride, and some stick time, in a factory fresh Pilatus 24, from the Pilatus factory at Bouchs Airport (LSZC) in Ennetbürgen, Switzerland to a kinda spicy landing at Saanen Airport (LSGK) in Bern, Switzerland. Here's a link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCFEhAUHZj4&t=558s. Pretty cool.

Meanwhile, we're gonna be in our P-51 Mustangs for this flight. The flight from Buochs to Saanen would be over too quickly, so we've gotta do some sight-seeing. We'll fly low through a bunch of Alpine valleys to the town of Salzberg, Austria, where we'll buzz the Von Trapp homestead. That's "the good." Next stop on our tour will be to fly over Kehlsteinhaus, a.k.a. "the Eagle's Nest," which is where Hitler went when he wanted to chill. That's "the bad." From there we'll just wreak general havok on our way to our final destination. Hopefully our approaches and landings at Saanen will not prove to be "the ugly."
