A peaceful morning with a flight from the old Saxon capital over to the west of the Ukraine to Lviv, the old former Lemberg that once belonged to Austria-Hungary. This flight has no real background. I have relatives there. The aircraft is an Embraer ERJ 170, a model by Virtualcol and anything but sophisticated. It does its job. But don't expect miracles. Used the "real weather" for this flight, and it was a bit challenging, especially because I expected an ILS approach to runway 31, but nothing came of it. I had to be satisfied with VOR/DME runway13. The flight time was one hour, which is quite suitable for such a regional flight. In the original, you have to travel from Dresden to Berlin by train, then to Budapest, or via Frankfurt-Main. The airline Cirrus has been history since 2013. She files for bankruptcy in 2013. She operated from Saarbrücken.

Great post ...I love #9, and a really good looking aircraft

Thank you very much. The Embraer 170/175 is quite popular in Eastern Europe. It is comparable in size to the old Tupolev Tu 134, of course has a significantly higher range and less thirst. Whether in detail the Airbus A220, which is a development of Canadair/Bombardier and was then sold to Airbus for lack of money, or the latest version of the Embraer 170 I can not judge. But Embraer After Airbus and Boeing is now the 3rd place in the construction of passenger aircraft, has something to do with it. In Germany, these Brazilian aircraft are also called "the samba dancers".
