If you've missed leg 1a,go here:
http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=screen;action=display;num=...

After I found out what was wrong with my Commander,I could finally complete my journey to Berlin.

Leg 1b: From somewhere in Hessia to Berlin (EDDI).

The map's still the same:

Airborne and climbing to my assigned altitude. Beautiful weather today,isn't it?

At this time of the year,germany looks like a desert...

Woah,much traffic today! Wink

Finally,the first suburbs of my hometown are appearing in the distance!

Descending over the south-western part of Berlin:

During left downwind (or was it right downwind? lol!), I came across the main sights of the city, the Reichstag and the Brandenburger Tor.

Looks good,but actually ,i was a tad too low...

But in the end, i smoothly set her down on runway 27L.

Alright! After i taxied to my parking space,I immediately left the airport , went to the city's centre for eating some typical berlin food and visited some old friends.
I some great days there!

Leg 2 coming soon...

whoa!
This trip is getting more and more familiar to me all the time, my ex-girlfriend lives in Berlin, I was there last may and visited her. Great city, lovely food and lots and lots of things to do, never a dull moment!
Don't know exactly where in Berlin she lives, but it's a walking distance from a subway station named Schönwalde (Barnim), you recognize it?

Man, talk about an Off Topic post!

Grrr, I'm never gonna catch up, now! My Baron's still sitting in the shop in Mexico, waiting for the flight mechanics to okay 'er for takeoff!

Oh, well! Great shots, and that's a great plane . . .

EDIT: By the way, which Aero Commander is that? Looks like the 560. Is it?

yeah yeah, whatever Grin

S-bahn station is correct, I have the train maps right infront of me, or else I would've never remember the station name.
