Merry Chritmas from Rovaniemi ( EFRO ) Finland !

I am actually on Squadron exchange at the "Suomi Ilmavoimat"

During a mission yesterday I cross Santa at 10,000 feet.

He was on a practice run for tonight and lucky for him, he had put
its IFF Transponder "On" !

Ho ! Ho ! Ho !

By the way, these shots are daytime ! 11:45 am !

Finland Air Forces bases are both Civil and Military

Merry Christmas

Nice! It brings back memories of my youth. I lived for a while near Rovaniemi before moving south to "balmy" Leppävirta. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
