  • FULL FLIGHT from Mengen (EDTM) to Augsburg (EDMA). Just before a thunderstorm hit the Mengen area - a former military airfield 80 km south of Stuttgart - we took off pretty quickly with a steep left turn, away from the rapidly approaching storm clouds. During the bumpy climbout to FL95 at 6800 ft a strong wind shear tilted our horizontal attitude 20 degrees to the right (05:13). The autopilot remained engaged and corrected the bank angle immedeately. After reaching 9.500 ft (06:45) we decided to turn back again to check out the radar echoes of the "cumulonimbus" clouds and its precipitation indication. Afterwards we headed back to Augsburg as we experienced an other unexpected "autopilot disengagement event" (19:15). Quite funny because turbulence wasn't a big deal at this time. While descending we were overtaking a C172 crossing our flightpath slightly below us (22:15) ...

    The smooth power of a turbine engine is amazing and surely worth the cost! What's the expression? "Long after price is forgotten, quality is remembered?"
    After watching your channel, the UA-cam algorithm is now showing me ads from German investment advisers like Friedrich Lange! „Nur tote Fische schwimmen mit dem Strom!“ 🤣

      One hasn't to be paranoid to realize we are terribly transparent in the internet - and this certainly is only the beginning 😅😅😅 ... Well the turbine really makes the difference - it is still unbelievable ... by the way, the value of the Meridian has increased significantly since it was purchased in October 😁
