June is the most popular flying month, simply because of the length of the days. On June 10th, I received early in the morning a call from my French friend Maurice with a very generous offering to join him for a flight in his helicopter over Luxembourg. Great weather, great idea and we planned to attend the BBQ organized that same weekend at the airfield of Noertrange in the north of Luxembourg. My son is always happy to join, this time was no different. Our friend Valerie Dumas is also joining. I notified Mika Wagner, head of the Young Pilots and that’s how our great helicopter journey started.
Maurice’s Robinson 44 helicopter is located at the Chambley airfield. He picked us up at Luxembourg airport. Here’s the picture report
