DA40NG cross-country flight from Helsinki to Tallinn (OH-STL)

My second cross-country flight to Tallinn (EETN) from Malmi airport (EFHF). The weather was beautiful, but some OVC clouds lingered over the Gulf of Finland at our enroute altitude. There was also some traffic at Tallinn and we needed a bit of extra work at that end. I need some work with the comms as well, but watching and creating this video is a good way to learn. I also need to remind myself how slow the Cessna 150's can be. Next time, will do better ;)

I hope this video also gives a good view on how to fly from Helsinki to Tallin in controlled airspace. I was looking out the steps how to make the flight but didn't find many. The flight itself is easy and convenient, you can get direct clearance to the baseleg of the active runway from Tallinn TMA if they do not have other traffic. But again, then you miss the nice approach route either via Muuga or Naisa VFR reporting points! Also get yourself familiar with EETN airport taxiway map, as the taxi clearances are given pretty fast and you might take some time to figure out how to move with the big planes as well.
