Marcel’s 1944 Piper L4 flight via Dave Bicker
Speaking with Marcel in Switzerland the other day, he mentioned that he had flown a WW2 1944 Piper L4 this month. So I asked him to send some pictures & notes over:
1944 Piper L4 at Airfield Sitterdorf LSZV
Cockpit view over Lake Constance
View of St Gallen Abbey
Flying over Walensee
Speed: 80mph
Altitude: 1700-6500ft
A friend took a picture of me today. The lake is called Sihlsee. He took it from a peak he’s climbed before”.
2 short videos of the flight over the snow covered mountains:
