Fly to ski

I can depart EGKA 0800 UTC and I reckon LOWS is 4-5hrs. I don’t think skiing by 1400 UTC is feasible I have all my own kit but one still has to get the ski pass etc.

Is anyone else coming?

Peter because I have booked for 2 if I dont get another, you will be in luck and be able to use the facilities at my Hotel. Since your only 300 m down the road.

Can you fit skis in the TB20?

EGLM & EGTN

Yes, easily. Modern “normal” skis are short and they go in the luggage compartment, sticking out a bit over the #4 seat. Weight is under 6kg, in a bag.

There has been a mod for some types to install a tubular extension into the rear hull cavity, for skis, but it’s not necessary in this case.

Where can I find the SUP:

ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES, REGULATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS DURING WINTER SEASON 2018/2019 – SEE AIP SUP 009/18

I have the AIP – LO_AD_2_LOWS_en_pdf which says very little AFAICS.

Is anyone else interested in coming along? It’s only 2 days

Here. In short: if you want to land, depart or park on a Saturday, expect them to tell you to bugger off. No matter how saturated the airport and the aprons really are.

Brilliant – thank you

I am impressed with the organisation!

I asked them about hangarage and how much etc, but I will bring my pump-up de-icing kit.

Yes but the longest carver type skis that I have tried to get in are 162cm, they stick between the front seats just above head height but are not a safety issue. I used to ski on 203 cm straight skis and there’s no chance of those fitting which is what made me move to the more modern carver type skis.
