Flying a 1941 Klemm 35 WWII German Air force Trainer in Sweden.

In this episode of Flight Chops, (a #Travel Adventure filmed in “the before times” of 2019), we’re hosted by our friends at Hässlö Flygförening, just outside of Stockholm and have the opportunity to fly a 1941 Klemm 35 WWII German Air Force warbird trainer.

Hässlö Flygförening is located at Stockholm Västerås Airport (ICAO code ESOW) about an hour drive from Stockholm. With more than 600 members they are the largest flying club in northern Europe.

Being so close to Stockholm, while still keeping out of the more congested airspace around the big international airport, HFF is a great place to start your #GeneralAviation flying adventure in #Sweden.

They have access to many different airplanes to rent, together with a group of highly competent instructors ranging from airline captains to aerobatic instructors.

For pilots visiting Sweden, they can assist with anything from information, checkout flights on new types to the paperwork needed to act as PIC on a Swedish registered plane without an EASA license.

FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.

The international language of aviation: "right rudder"!

Love the tach. Its sort of accurate especially when the motor is off. So good to see this 81 year old plane still airworthy.

I have been an airplane enthusiast my whole 70 years, and only discovered the Klemm 35 about two months ago. I was immediately struck by the phenomenal beauty of this airplane. Congratulations on getting to fly one. You are living the dream!

Also; Patrik has an awesome vibe to him. So cheerful and enthousiastic yet calm and confident. He'd probably make a good YouTuber :D.

"How do you know your engine is OK? You don't." Well that sounds like a fun adventure.

Nice to have you here in Sweden, and I'm looking forward to the upcoming episodes. I can see you've visited Bunge (ESVB) - happy you didn't miss that one - a fantastic place with wonderful people maintaining it.

I really enjoyed this episode. Great to see you in Europe. Having to cope with Metres and Kilometres per hour! Also really interesting to see how relaxed you looked, which I would compare to the present time, with Covid 19....a different time. Thanks for this Steve.

How fun to see Patrik on your channel! Many years now since, but i got to see Berlin Tempelhof with him in a Saab 340 before they closed it down.

What a cool airplane! Seeing the Chipmunk made me wistful... wondering when (or even if) I'll get a chance to fly it again.
