A few from today's Murmansk, Russia to Alta, Norway flight.

It was supposed to be a short 30-minute flight, but ATC decided that I needed a nice vectored tour of the surrounding region for an extra 20 minutes prior to joining the ILS. Of course, I had kept fuel to a minimum per the Tu-154's fuel and load calculator, and as a result, I got the "low fuel" warning light and buzzer on very short final. That hasn't happened to me before, and things could have been interesting if I had to go around!

The shots below show my plane parked as Murmansk, waiting for an Aeroflot-Nord An-24 to take off, departure, cruising, then on final to Alta.
