Norfolk International KORF → Billy Mitchell KHSE

In the early morning, both the moon and the sun were visible at the same time. The sun was just rising as I flew over Kill Devil Hills – the site of the Wright brothers' work and the location of the first motor-powered flight (last image).

A runway length of only 3,000 feet at Billy Mitchell Airfield and crosswinds made the landing quite a challenge.

Richmond International KRIC → Norfolk International KORF

Back in the United States for another attempt after resolving the technical issues. I’ve updated the keyboard shortcuts before takeoff ;-)

This flight was short but came with stunning views. The gusty crosswinds made landing quite a challenge. Had to make a go-around after the first try but managed to get down safely on the second attempt.

Berlin Brandenburg Airport EDDB → Berlin Brandenburg Airport EDDB

Right after work, I took a round-trip flight to the Lower Lusatia region in the Daher TBM 930, passing by my current and former hometowns. The flight was in real-time with actual weather conditions, allowing me to witness both the moonrise and sunset at the same time (check out my previous posts in this thread for “photos”).
