Trips / Groningen
6 April 2015
Weather on Easter Monday Before the weekend, René had invited Eddy for a flight on Monday, and Eddy and Thijs joined for a little flying trip. The weather on Easter Monday was not as good as forecasted, but still good enough to make a trip to Groningen. René had not been to Groningen Eelde airport for years, and the weather was improving from the north-east to the south-west, so we would fly towards the best weather that day. On the way up to Groningen there were a few drops of rain, but the visibility was very good and remained that way. On the way back the clouds were scattered and we had a tail wind.
