Hi All, after a really neverending, very cold, dark and multisnowrich winter there seems to be some sights finally, that the Flying Season 2011 in Finland could start. Obviously it will be extremely hot just like last summer. I well remember once I was airborne around midnight at the flight level FL60 and I got a sudden feeling there is something seriously wrong. Engine was a bit hot and somehow unpowered and I did not feel very good. Finally I noticed OAT was +30C ! So, it was nice to open my Europa=C2=B4s refridgerator and take out some refreshments (only juice of course =93 do not worry there is room available for six cans and two of them must be after-flight beers [attachment]). Yes I know =93 the colour world is not perfect. The fridge is red but some day it will be painted to be gold. As I stated it was not actually so fun to even think about flying in Finland last winter. I got so sick that my wife forced me =93 a poor Europa pilot =93 to fly. If you click http://www.youtube.com/watchL?v=RAt9oj9eI3I you will see how it went. It has been loaded last night only some hours ago. It is very Europa (Monowheel only) related. If you like it please press a button =9CI like it=9D. I wish you all very attractive and safe flights, with Europa or any plane (do not fly alone, flying is very social as you well know).

Words cannot describe it Raimo, fantastic mate. That must have been something else. Great to see how Marke and the girls were so happy for you too!
