Hi and welcome to another post in my blog
Last week I had a chance to take a sightseeing fly above the southern part of
Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony). The flight lasted 1 hour 37 minutes and took us from
Peine/Eddesse (EDVP) to
Hildesheim, the
Deister, southern
Hannover along the
Mittellandkanal to
Braunschweig and back to
Peine along the
Autobahn A2.
At the beginnning I did some plane spotting at Peine Airfield, here are the results:
- Private - Schweizer 269C - D-HHEX

- Private - Reims-Cessna F337F Super Skymaster - D-GMCM

- Charter Air - Socata TB-200 Tobago XL - Reg.: D-EVON

Our Aircraft for this flight, build in 1978 as line number: 172-71629
- Charter Air - Cessna 172N Skyhawk - Reg.: D-EFLB

First our flight took us to
Mehrum Power Station

Then we passed the little Airport of Hildesheim

on our way to the beautiful castle
Marienburg


Afterwards we crossed the little city of Pattensen (Sorry, no photo available) and we turned to Hannover and passed the
Hannover Fairground,

crossed the southside of the
Maschsee with its bathing beach

and passed the
Zoo Hannover (Middle),
Hannover Congress Centrum (HCC) (lower left) and the
Eilenriedestadion (lower right)

We left Hannover via its borough Anderten with its
Hindenburg Lock
passed over the
Justizvollzugsanstalt Sehnde, a large and modern Jail

and then on to Braunschweig, where we flew directly over the city

and were able to see the
St. Martini Church
and the
Schloss Arkaden Shopping Center

After the flight above the city of Braunschweig we crossed
Braunschweig Airport

and then returned to the airfield of Peine/Eddesse
Thanks for watching.
Christian.
