| Ready for a return trip to Hamburg after a break |
Taxiing to runway 26R |
While I'm taxiing, GUN reports he'll be arriving at Tegel shortly |
|
|
|
| Holding short runway 26R |
GUN on final, there seems to be a balloon in front of him |
|
|
|
|
|
Ready for takeoff |
Accelerating (steering on takeoff gets much easier once you can push the nose down to see the runway) |
|
|
|
| Takeoff from Berlin Tegel Airport (1) |
Takeoff from Berlin Tegel Airport (2) |
Takeoff from Berlin Tegel Airport (3) |

GUN is following me back to Hamburg... |
...but since he's in a faster plane I end up being the one following |
|
|
|
| Leveling out at 5000 feet, applying max cruise power to keep up |
Poor beacon reception (Soviet jamming perhaps?), trying to stay inside the middle corridor |
Finally receiving Braunschweig NDB after using some other navaids for reference |
|
|
|
| Almost out of the corridor, the sky has cleared up quite a bit |
Above Braunschweig, now heading for Celle NDB |
Passing Celle |
|
|
|
| Heading on to Hamburg from Fassberg |
A short burst of rain... |
...and a hailstorm! |
|
|
|
| The river Elbe |
Returning to Hamburg, descending out of the clouds |
Looking for the airport |
|
|
|
| Got visual on EDDH. Lots of hail damage on the windows :( |
Starting approach |
