2 am in the morning, you're probably thinking what am i doing up this early ???. Well i'm really excited with flying to Deurne tomorrow, that's where my granddad lives and i haven't seen him in 8 years. The fun part is that he doesn't know that i'm coming for a visit ;D. I used to live in Belgium some years ago, so i know my way around. One of the first things that i will do after i've seen my granddad is visit the "Groote Markt"," Het Steen" and the world famous Antwerp Cathedral. It's very simple i can't sleep, i'm too nervous i have to leave now. It's an hour to fly to Deurne airport(EBAW) in Antwerp Belgium, i don't have to worry about transportation there are trams and busses everywhere in Antwerp. So lets gooooooooo ;D.
PS: Look at the London scenery in the background :o.

Deurne airport in sight, preparing to land ;D

The guys at the ATC made me park right next to a big fuel storage tank :o, lucky for me i don't smoke 8). I'll be here for a couple of hours to do my stuff, i'm taking along some Screech that Splash gave me so my granddad (who loves a pint once in a while) could taste it. I hope to resume my voyage soon and fly to the city of romance Paris in France  ;).

Look out i will be back with lots more ;D. Happy flying

Hi Ludo, nice shots!

But you really, really wanna stay away from Antwerp now, especially when going by car... Big works at the ring around Antwerp - so prepare for major trafficjams...

Say, why don't you take a short hop to Ursel airfield, I live close by! I'll buy you a nice drink...   ;)
