EFIV Ivaio Airport is situated in Lapland, northern Finland. (MSFS)

 

Many years ago, I went skiing in Levi in Lapland, flying into EFKT Kittilä Airport which is 91 miles(147km) southwest of Ivaio Airport.

 

Finland's climate varies from humid continental in the south to the boreal in the north. The land cover is primarily a boreal forest biome, with more than 180,000 recorded lakes.

Stretching across 1.5 billion acres of the Northern Hemisphere—from Canada to Scandinavia to Russia (the Taiga) to Japan—the Boreal forests are the most carbon dense forest systems on Earth. They are home to hundreds of Indigenous communities, centuries-old conifers, mossy peatlands, and large caribou herds.

It's so nice to see a "day in the life" of a passenger then the flight nowadays.  It creates a sense of immersion like never before, for me anyway.

 

As for the caribou, I wonder if they're still radioactive from Chernobyl.  I read that they're off limits to hunt and eat because of that, so sad.

Thanks Jack :). I agree, it all adds to a feeling of being there. Let's just hope that nothing that bad happens in the Ukraine.
