A 10-day holiday trip to the Adriatic with my wife, visiting Prague/Letnany, Portoroz, Losinj, Hvar, Brac and Venice/Lido.
A 10 – day trip around the SW US, L.A. > Sedona > Albuquerque > Carlsbad > Santa Fe > Marble Canyon > L.A. plus a coupe of intermediate stops. Highlight would have been the landings at Sedona and especially Marble Canyon, which sits inside (!!) Grand Canyon and is a little narrower than the wingspan of the C210 I’m flying.
My Easter weekend trip, the plan was to fly to Scotland but we end-up flying from the UK to Netherland, Belgium, France, 4 full days of perfect weather and zero logistics/planning
Technically my greatest trip was Eslöv – Lübeck 1h50m. Very bad year for me, just 30h flying around in circles. Hopefully better trips will happen in 2020.
I finally got down to Malta this year from Shoreham in August.
Shoreham – Cannes – Corsica – Sicily – Malta – Corsica – Avignon – Shoreham
2.5 weeks…we took our time!
Flew to a friend’s wedding with a seaplane. 2,5 hours airborne, landed and moored just outside the wedding location. That was hugely satisfying and showed me how great float flying can be!
We made a Weekend trip with my Europa from Essen-Mülheim EDLE to the isle Samsø in Denmark. We had a great time there with fellow aviators from all over Europe. Camping under the wing, great sunsets, bicycle tours, good food…. Just what flying is all about for me.

I can one-up this, because my “greatest trip” A to B this year was Hannover EDDV to Porta Westfalica EDVY, 33 nm Great Circle Distance…
No really, I am feeling lucky to have reached the end of this year with a valid PPL, thanks to revalidation with a FE in June. It sucks if one’s rental outfit sells all their planes and you have to search for a new one after finally having everything arranged properly.
