Das ist ein schönes Video. Vielen Dank für die Videos mit uns.

(That is a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing the videos with us)

My apologies for any errors as it has been decades since I lived in Germany while in the Army.

Those were very good... thank you Olaf!
Is the large round lake a meteor crater?

Hi John, thank you!

This lake is a vulcan in our Eifel mountain range. At the bottoom of the lake is an Halifax-Bomber and may be a second airplane from WW2. The Halifax-Bomber was checked 2008 by divers, individual fragments of the machine have been recovered, the wreck itself or bombs wasn't found.

Nice videos. As a teenager I spent sometime in Krefeld. I saw you posted a video over it.

There was a Halifax Bomber at the bottom of a lake in Norway. In 1995 it was brought up and shipped to Canada where it was restored in 2005.

Thanks for the video, Olaf. I like your multiple camera setup. Does that make editing video go three times slower?

Hello and thank you all.

Yes, it's a lot of work to cut the scene's, merge it, provide subtitles and edit the video with useful music but I enjoy it to show the viewers our little nice landscape. I think, only one camera let it be boring, I try to use more perspectives to give them more variety.

I like your Idaho Backcountry Flying (Wilson Bar, Cabin Creek, James Ranch, Vines). I think it will be fantastic for flying.

I enjoyed that, Olaf... thank you! The brick paving of the runways is interesting. Are most runways in Germany paved that way?

Olle1975

Hello and thank you guys... :-)

I've never seen this paving before but all island runways are paved like this.
May be it was easier to enlarge a runway or water could seep away better....

Hi at all,

we have altitudelimits in germany and it's allowed to land at airports or airstrips only.

For this reason, it could be a highlight to have a deep approach, a few feet above a highway or forest like this in germany.

I think, I have to fly in Idaho, the videos I've seen are amazing!!!

Take Care.

Olaf,
I remember flying VFR in the UK where we would fly at a lower altitude and maintained radio contact with an air traffic controller and this was in uncontrolled air space. I had moved from Texas where you can depart and land at a non towered airport fly in uncontrolled air space and never talk to air traffic controller. This was a big change for me.

Great video!

Thanks, Ray

Thanks at all.

Now I mounted the cam in cockpit, I like the cockpit view.

The following airstrip is located on the top of a hill (Mount Royal), surrounded by a river.

Nice approach and nice town I think, but the controller was a bit crazy about controlling traffic ;-)
