On the road to Slovenia

Only some 45 nm from the final destination Slovenj Gradec I had to stop due to wx.
There was no way that I was able to fly to the final destination in rain and clouds that where on the ground specially when you need to go around a mountain of 5600 feet...
So I stopped at Murska Sobota and waited for better wx which arrived the next morning.
During the whole ferryflight from Finland to Slovenia not even one leg was I able to stay dry. On each leg I was had to go through bad weather and rain, while at Balaton in Hungary just before Murska Sobota I was greeted with some thunderstorms and lightnings...
And yes also on the last leg from Murska Sobota to Slovenj Gradec there was some rains that I had to fly through if I wanted to get there...

Stop at EPKK

When the plane had been shoot (by camera, not down) it was time to change scenery to Slovenia for a training camp.
Second landing at Krakow Poland showed that the world is sometimes small when a Piper from my homefield was found at the same apron.Then you can always ask who has the bigger plane I or LOT?

Photoshoot

Since the plane got an facelift I needed to make a A2A session with my trusted photowizard Mikko Maliniemi.
Here are couple pics for you to see from the session.
And thanks to Viki Korjula for having a steady hand in the photoplane.
