Flights to Remote Islands Part 4 - Bergen Norway to Vagar, Faroe Islands

[BillD22]

Here are some shots of an Atlantic Airways flight from Bergen, Norway (ENBR) out to Vagar airport (EKVG) in the Faroe Island halfway between Norway and Iceland.

 

Takeoff and climb out in clear weather over the beautiful Norwegian coastline. Things won't be so clear in Vagar with RW reported weather 900 feet overcast and visibility 6 miles. Wind 140 at 11.

 

 

 

 

On the approach to Runway 12 at EKVG with the low ceiling weather as advertised on the descent. The approach lights are just starting to come into view in the second shot.

 

 

A "firm" touchdown with spoilers and reversers deployed

 

Taxi to the gate, shut down, and ground service with passengers deplaning. Welcome to Vagar! Temperature 55F.

Thank goodness for IFR! Those approach lights didn't stand a chance in that weather for these eyes!

Interesting series Bill.
