We landed on a Norwegian MOUNTAIN!

- As a challenge, we flew to a mountain airport in Norway to practise landing techniques in a Cirrus SR20. Fly along as I learn tips from Cirrus Instructor Pilot Philippe, fixing height with power and speed with pitch. Watch Philippe fly an Instructor's circuit then see how I go trying the new techniques. Filmed at Sogndal Airport, Haukåsen, Norway in N55557.

Beautiful work on the landings...
Thanks mate. He’s a great instructor.
Thanks for coming to my home town!
I am from Norway it is nice there!
Hello!
New subscriber here. As a low-time PPL that still struggles with landings, I find it refreshing and comforting that even an experienced pilot like you take landing lessons / refreshers and are humble enough to admit it. Love all your videos!
Welcome to the channel Faisal, thanks for subscribing. There’s no perfect pilot, only a) pilots who admit they can never stop learning and b) pilots who think they know it all. I’m very proud to be part of the first group, and would never fly with anyone from the other. Enjoy your flying mate, stef
We flew from Holland to the North Cape and back some years ago and Sogndal was the most memorable approach and the nicest airfield in Norway. Thanks for letting me relive the memories!
Hi Steph. I live next door in Adelaide and have been working my way through all of your videos.. i trained and flew in the sr20 about 10 years ago here in SA but after the birth of our son i had to direct finances elsewhere.. lol your videos are inspirational and have given me the kick to get back into it. Your comments and feeling whilst flying are the reason i started. It never leaves you. My sister lives in Bergen Norway and im heading there next year.. think ill have to find a charter company and head to the mountains!! Your outback flight was magnificient and i will do same one day.. take care. Nik
Same LONGITUDE as Cairo. Even though I knew it CANT be latitude....I still had to check a map, haha
Richard Nash haha! I had exactly the same. 😅
Haha got me too..
@@owenabz True! :-) More interesting is that Oslo is at the same latitude as south tip of Greenland, but because of the Gulf Stream Norway isn't far as cold and not covered with ice.
Another great video from both of you. Norway is quite beautiful. Thanks for the ride. Fly safe and have fun.
This has been a really great set of videos. Thanks very much for putting these videos up.
You and Philippe had a great time on those trips, you had fun, learnt a lot (as we did), visited some interesting places and shared it. Thanks Stef
Nice, i was doing a roadtrip trough norway at that time, its a really beautifull country
Nice place... I live just over the moutain on the right side, across the fjord.
Fantastic video looks amazing and the instruction from phillippe was amazing. Keep up the good work look forward to seeing more.
Another great video Stef, but that's life huh?..it has it's ups and downs!..keep up the great work! Cheers.
Stefan i hope you have been to ENSD(Sandane),, its a stunning approach to a much more challenging airport about 40nm from SONGDAL. GREAT TRIP AND AMAZING CONTENT
Amazing! Please keep sharing these videos, they keep me sane when I don’t have time to fly
Ha, cheers Dillon. Lots more adventures to come.
Stefan,
Phillipe is one awesome instructor and your landings were beautiful.
I was in Bergen around 1970(the home of Grieg) the great composer.
I had just finished driving through the Fjords in a VW mini bus, which is not a s much fun as flying in. It was spectacular,
and if you are stayed in Bergen for a couple of days, I hope you took the Funicular or cable cars to the mountain top.
Thanks ever so much,
Cheers
Rik Spector
So lucky dammit, I've been at that airport so many times on my flight simulation on an sr22 and it's so gorgeous, lucky bastard for doing it in real life
Beautiful place to run patterns! Wow!
You guys have ALL the fun in Europe! ;-)
You're from Australia, I thought you always flew the pattern backwards
And upside down...
Finally had my house featured in one of your videos. ;)
Love that you flew in my home country of Norway! I haven't flown there myself, only in Australia :D
Such an interesting video to watch. Interesting discussions with my own instructor and to try this weekend!
Great stuff gentlemen! Another page in the Cirrus Life scrapbook. Next time either of you find yourself in Los Angeles I'd love to go flying with you. Philipe, before I bought my Gen 6 22T I discovered you and young Ben from the UK and I watched your vids on replay. When I made it to Knoxville to pickup 768FS I felt like I really knew the plane from watching you teach Ben how to fly the Cirrus. Thanks-Ren
Beautiful! Nice work!! Loved it sir
Beautiful flying!!!
Thank you stef I get what my mate was explaining to me great stuff
Thanks for watching Mark
Come do this at SVJ in Northern Norway, man. I can come by and get some ground footage for you.
Hey Stef, great video! Just a quick one - in the EU with ATC (takeoff, landing or touch and go) you have to read back the runway too! Haha so nitty gritty, superb video though 😅
How has this got two thumbs down? Excellent video guys and a great landing technique!
You can’t please everyone, every video I make gets at least a few thumbs down! Glad YOU enjoyed it though John, thanks for watching.
@@StefanDrury I really hope to meet you one day you're awesome!!
hey! i saw u peeking!!.. great series, awesome terrain
Great Vid Stefan keep them coming!
Thank you, lots of content like this still to come
Sandane!
It's almost becomes muscle memory 😎
I was trained to NOT apply flaps during a turn to avoid the possibility of a stall/spin by getting to slow. I noticed that you are doing this on your landings. What are your thoughts on this? Love your channel. Thanks.
Same here with gliders. They teach us not to apply spoilers or flaps when turning, so naturally it caught my eye too :)
Awesome video. I'm a student pilot, training in SR20. Thoroughly enjoy your channel, and appreciate all you produce. Once you're set at 20% power on downwind, is the idea that pitch controls airspeed, and ideally, power doesn't change until runway is assured?
Thanks John, yes that’s the way Philippe was demonstrating here. There are various methods and of course I should say to check with your instructor before trying anything new, but that’s what we were experimenting with here and I found it to work well for my needs. Thanks for watching, good luck with your flight training, stef
Was gonna say water they (the TMST vehicle) doing but either way :D
Please make sure co-captian milkshake has on her parashute to use.
Same longitude as Cairo -- not latitude. The N/S lines are longitude. The E/W lines are latitude. That is, of course, unless there's a different origin and orientation of latitude and longitude. So, yes, Cairo isn't as far East as the Eastern-most point of Norway.
Nice flighttraining. What does the instructor means with ‘control the balloon’?
Thanks Hans, that’s referring to when you put flaps out the aircraft generates additional lift quickly, and if you don’t apply a little forward stick it will “balloon” upwards. Applying forward stick (down elevator) means instead of lift you remain at the same altitude and the nose attitude drops instead. Thanks, hope that explains it, stef
How old was this ‘cos I tracked EYZ and you went around warrambool today
From last month, date is on the opening sequence. Bit behind on these European vlogs...

No worries take your time on the videos
hey Stef
Melbourne to Brisbane in KJN. how long wld it take and how much fuel would it take? what is the Best cruise altitude in KJN? and do you have oxygen on board??
Thanks in advance mate
Hey Jack, lots and lots of variables to your question. But roughly 4.5hrs direct Melbourne to Brisbane in an SR22, though you wouldn’t get that routing. Fuel depends on how you’re leaning and altitude etc. No oxygen on board KJN but watch this space re EYZ...
@@StefanDrury id like cirrus to do a twin engine like a Diamond da62, or a single turbine Sr22 but with pressurization with obv oxygen retract gear and a celieng of say FL 21/FL 20. that would put it in a very sweet spot price wise VS a bigger TBM, Cessna etc.
Is the eastern most point of Norway and Cairo really on the same line of latitude?
Think you meant Longitude here. Most of Norway is not the same longitude, but if you look at the eastern part of north Norway it is at about 31 degrees east. Close to Cairo.
Same latitude? 🤔🤔🤔😳😳😳
First
Super fast!
Same latitude as Cairo... no, maybe longitude.
second haha
