European Tour Leg 09: Floro(Norway) to Soderhamn(Sweden)
An all overland flight... didn't make one of those up till now. And with a 355 nautical mile long leg with a flying time of exactly 3 and a half hour it has been the longest of the trip sofar.
There are several legs ahead of me with a similar distance but leg 41 will be the longest with it's 409.4 miles.
This flight was flown on vor as a primary navigation aid. After take off from runway 7 i flew direct to SOG VOR and than to MES VOR which I followed outbound after passing it towards Soderhamn.
I was instructed to make a left downwind for runway 30.
When flying along downwind Cessna Skylane N26752 flew a right hand downwind for 30. He was cleared to land before me but after landing he kept occupying the runway, he reported clear of the runway when i was turning finals.
I was already preparing for a go around but fortunately i didn't had too:-)
