Trip to Salzberg Festival

Last month, Aug 2008. Just before the Olympic Games open, The Rex Britanniae-Hiberniae proposed that he would participate the festival.Therefore it's the time that SamwickAir royal flight takes-off!

Salzburg Festival is a prominent festival of
music, drama and opera.It is held each summer for five weeks starting in late July in Salzburg, Austria(which is the birth place of Mozart)

His Majesty stated that he would really like to watch this year's new production of Wolfgang A. Mozart's Don Giovanni, which features Dorothea Röschmann & Erwin Schrott, conducted by Bertrand de Billy, the principal conductor of ORF Symphony Orchestra Vienna.

After The Rex Britanniae-Hiberniae attend a ceremony in Hiroshoma, the flight immediately head to Dubai for our first stop of European trip.


Here is the apron specifically for business jets in Osaka Kansai intl. (RJBB/KIX)
As you can see doors are closed and I have to start my before taxi checklist.


According to our latest METAR, there will be light shower.And that really comes just after our aircraft moves.


20 mins. after departure, I switched off the seatbelt sign and hanging around inside the cabin.You can see outside is still very cloudy, and the weather inside always displaying yellow pictures to us. Wings below is Yonago Airport, a city nearby Nihon-Kai.


The sun is getting up at outside...lol
Here is already 11 hours after departure, after a nice 6-hour sleeping
Our plan get to Iranian airspace (Be relax....Iran welcomes all foreign aircraft fly over it)


Very stable flight, with beautiful dawn


This is Persian Gulf. You can see the land at the window frame.
Left side is Iran, Right side is UAE.
Is that like Right Politics? Always better than left. lol


Mist.....Mist.....Mist
Visibility goes down and down after we entered UAE airspace, like Hong Kong's political situation
We've choose the right side but mist is covering our bright side.


300oft high to runway, still can't see any universal suffrage


This photo was taken by my student sitting on jump seat, I remembered that it's 50ft(about 20meters) to touchdown, we still can't see the whole runway.Therefore we decided to use ILS CATIII landing before, or blind landing the people called.n-order the reach the groung..lol
That we can rely on instrument and avionics to fly our plane. I(Otherwise, we have to go-around, having a hold in mid air and standby for the visibility improve)
Is that really like councilors oppose to constitutional development report then we have to wait, or accept the birdcage way ? wwwwwwww


Mist and fog covers beautiful Dubai airport terminal 2, hoppfully this kind of fog not come from Beijing and the terminal is not Hong Kong


As the weather is getting worse, Dubai airport authority permitted a special arrangement to use that park the aircraft in terminal area and served with passengers bridges.


This photo was taken by me... :)
Passenger bridges docked with our aircraft, and cleaning vehicles located behind our plane.


Another my-hand-made picture, you can see a beautiful terminal and tower in the mist.
Also our tiny plane(compared with a British Boeing 747 nearby)

After few days of shooping, touring, sightseeing.......We will head to Salzburg
Country of Music, Ich bin kommenden !
