Ya its the one that has the weird partition in between the hangars. It is a very cool hangar. Supposedly that was Earhart's old hangar.

It was a nice tailwind day going south. Hopefully it is like this when we go back north in a couple days.

Here is one of me flying a Waco just south of Lake Michigan:

and here is one of the King Air a few months ago:

I love the feature on the Iphone except for what it does with some of the edges and the props. I like the way yours came out though! Must have been flying in some pretty smooth air.

Nope, I fly this one out of SFF.

Nope, I fly this one out of SFF.

Just curious. I know of a g1000 B200 based there and I saw BROPH as your next fix, so I though it might be you.

How do the pilots of SAS work? For example does each country, have their own national pilots working those flights? For example the flight from ARN staffed by Swedes, the one from CPH staffed by Danes, etc.?

Thanks!

Its kind of like American companies where there are three pilot bases (OSL, CPH, ARN) and you can live where you want and commute to work. On my flight the captain was Swedish but based in Oslo and lives there. The trip started with a deadhead for him down to CPH to do the Newark flight. The FO was Danish and lives 5 min from CPH. He said they sometimes deadhead him up to ARN for trips too. So you can be based wherever you want, regardless of nationality. The airplane registrations kinda work the same, the fleet have registrations from the three nationalities: SE-, OY-, and LN-

Oh and something else I thought was interesting is that they dont get flight pay, just straight salary. They average 4 trips a month (3 day trips) and dont really have control over their schedules, they just put in their requests like a certain date off or something. The captain is also retiring next month and is only 57!

Thanks! Do you have your JAA stuff and going to try to work for them?
