The sun wakes me up early this morning, we are further north than we have been for awhile, so it rises earlier than expected. There was no AC in the room last night so I had the windows open. Open windows meant a cold morning rise. At breakfast we discussed the flight ahead and noted the local airport weather reported fog! How could this be, it is a glorious day outside. We soon find out why when we driven to the airport, the city is clear but the airport is in the soup. Looks like we not make our planned departure time. The fog lifted quite suddenly and we were only 45 minutes behind schedule. We took are personal airplane bus to the helicopter and proceeded on our way. In Russia they like us to fly high and they clear us to FL100, 10,000ft on QNH 1003 hectapascals. Luckily today is a clear day so this is not a problem. Our flight up the spine of Sahkalinsk is quite spectacular and we enjoy the beauty of the mountains....
