| Starting from Helsinki-Vantaa Airport in a Finnair 757 | Ready to start the engines after building the flight plan | The rain has stopped momentarily... |
|
|
|
| ...but it's back as soon as I start taxiing | ||
|
|
|
| Crossing another runway on the way to 22L | Making a radio call... | |
|
|
|
| ...and lining up for takeoff | Ready... | ...rolling |
|
|
|
| Taking off from EFHK | ||
|
|
|
| Making a left turn after takeoff | ||
|
|
|
| Passing low above central Helsinki | ||
|
|
|
| No idea what a US aircraft carrier is doing off the coast of Helsinki... we're not in NATO, not yet at least! | ||

| The smaller Helsinki-Malmi Airport below | Continuing east towards the VOR in Porvoo | |

|
|
| Departing Helsinki | The autopilot was doing the zigzagging routine at first... but it evened out eventually | |
