Stillwater Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 So many people travel to Munich within the next 2 1/2 weeks, Austrian needed to change to a bigger plane for the service from Vienna. Here we get ready at gate F1, ... ... as can be seen with the special livery "Danube waltz". Last checks outside... ... and inside. Off we go at the 16. No doubt: It is autumn in Vienna. We already reach our FL200 five minutes after takeoff, and make the easy navigation from here: Following the Danube river upstream. Coffee is served, and you can see "Winston Churchill" having a cigar in the background. The Voralpenland, with a clear difference in mesh. Salzburg at the banks of River Salzach. And here we already descend over Munich. You can see the GES cityscape is too brown to be realistic. Moderators, please put this to your list! The sandy-looking area in the left background of the picture is the Theresienwiese, where the last preparations for the Wiesn are currently ongoing. Starnberger and Ammersee to our left. Seems someone is already waiting for us... ... but we still take our time and have a soft landing. Some tourists will have harder landings after consumption of the usual Wiesn menus...

As the plane did not catch the ILS I had to fly the last 5 miles manual. But visibility was good, and the wind was nearly straight from the front. 2 hours ago, BradB said: Hold my beer while I say another fantastic post Gerold .

Sauber! I knew you´ll like the plane. As much as I liked to get the chance for the cockpit preparation shot (and a little chat). There is a special "coffee menu" on some of their flights, and this was my choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
