What a view on Luxembourg City !

My last approach for 2018 was as well one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. The sun, low on the horizon hitting the tall buildings of Kirchberg, while the fog fills up the valleys… 😍 Luxembourg

Saturday morning flight to Nice

Cannes vue du ciel - Mycockpitview

We did not get the usual routing via Monaco, but flew over Mandelieu before getting vectors for the VOR B runway 04L. It was nice to get a change and get this wonderfull sunrise view over Cannes. (Gopro 5 screenshot from a 4K video)

London City by night

London City Airport by night - Final runway 27 - Mycockpitview

Final runway 27 at London City Airport, on a crystal clear night. That’s the view we discovered breaking out of the clouds. Definitely in the top 5 of the Luxair destinations.

Q400 on final approach, Innsbruck – Austria

In the heart of the austrian Alps, Innsbruck is an amazing place. Pilots need a special training to be able to operate to/from Innsbruck, due to the high terrain around and special approach and departure procedures. This is where the Luxair Q400’s undergo their C check. Those pictures are from my second flight there, in January 2018. For my first flight, I did a video of the approach and landing that you can see here. One of the most beautiful approach I have ever flown…

Beautiful London

London city airport

The approach runway 09 at London City is one of the most amazing we have on the Luxair network. Overflying that city, and turning final around the Shard and the tower bridge at 2000 feet is just surrealist.

My first officer Laurentz Snyers concentrated just before landing…
