Riga- Eine Winterreise
Das Baltikum hat sich seit dem Ende der Sowjetunion stark verändert. Auch Lettland, insbesondere Riga hat sich gewandelt und zu alter Schönheit zurück gefunden. Natürlich wäre ein Beitrag im Sommer wesentlich reizvoller gewesen, aber auch im Winter wird man von einem besonderen Charme umgeben. Eine Reise die sich durchaus lohnt.
Flight around Rundāle palace and a low pass Pilsrundāle airfield RWY 07 [5625N02359E]
2 palaces and one castle in 5 mins flying distance from each other in Zemgale and a former agricultural airfield by one of them. 400 x 20 m strip in medium/good condition, could be used for flying activities if cleaned from gravel on the tarmac. Would be no problem landing/departing RWY25 on a full, regular C172, however, RWY07 performance must be reduced due to proximity of trees on clearway. This particular low pass was done with approx. 2000 lbs weight. At the end of the video pointed out towards Mežotne palace which is in few miles distance.
