GA to Chambery - WT9 Dynamic

[HighBypass 2,339]

Having flown a 757 in an unorthodox approach to LFLB, it was time to get the little WT-9 Dynamic over to Chambery with a view to taking it up to Courchevel, weather depending.

 

I'd already flown the Dynamic from the UK to France. I believe she's actually got the range to go from Blackpool to Chambery in one go....just! - it's only about 600nm! However, I didn't want to set up a 6 hour or so flight! So I stopped off at Bembridge on the Isle of Wight before continuing on to Briare Chatillon (LFEI) just to break the journey up.

 

At Briare pre-flight. Weather should be quite good today.

 

I'm sure the blue taildragger was at Bembridge before I set off! 

 

Cruising along at about 5500, cloudbase just above, shouldn't be a problem.

 

 

 

If the weather becomes a problem I can always stop and read the owner's handbook!!

 

Chambery should be just over these hills..

 

Aha! Hello!

 

Cleared to land rwy18

 

 

Slight crosswind from the west.... that's my story anyway!

 

Come on turnoff point...

 

There's that blue taildragger again... I'm being stalked!

 

Thanks for viewing.
