Our beautiful lady: HB-CKA

Built in 1949 and still in perfect condition. We operate her in a small flying club (Cessna 170 Club) consisting of three pilots and one non-flying member. With her I'm exploring Europe. I've been to Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Slovenia, Czech Republic and Croatia and I'm looking forward for many more countries to come.

This is it. THE biggest and heaviest plane I most probably will ever fly in my whole life. The famous Antonov AN-2, the one and only, the legend. For the time being I am flying it as a copilot and gaining some experience on that huge plane. I cherish every minute sitting up front and feeling that sheer power of this huge 1000hp radial engine.

There is a saying: "If it looks nice it flies nice". And yes, in this case it is true. This little italian beauty is a simple but yet agile and and comfortable airplane used as a training aircraft in our flying club in LSZK. I have the pleasure to fly that bird mostly from the right hand seat as an instructor to train pilots for familiarisation.

The most challenging aircraft I have been flying so far. A powerful 235hp engine and STOL capabilities make this one a real pleasure to fly. Most of the time I do glider-towing with this model. Since spring 2020 as a Class Rating Instructor CRI (A) I do instruct future towing pilots on this cool plane.

If it comes to payload this workhorse outruns many 4-seater-aircraft. Around 500kg can be loaded and it still flies fast and far. The only Piper I do fly for the moment and I like it very much. It is equipped with a 235hp-Lycoming engine, a decent cockpit, a 2-axis autopilot and is pretty roomy. The only thing I need to get used to is the fact, that there is only one door for all persons on board...

THE basic trainer. Very famous for her easy flight characteristics and the model I made my PPL on. We still have three of them at LSZK but sooner or later we will have to look for replacement.

A sleek and good looking plane with lots of space inside the cabin and a modern Garmin G1000-Cockpit. I used to fly that one based in LSZR for passenger flights. Due to lack of time i quit flying out of St. Gallen-Altenrhein and the plane will be sold shortly.

When it comes to quality Diamond Aircraft are truly unique. State of the art technology is used to build these planes. So it comes that the two DA40NG that I used to fly out of LSZR for a flying school were as close as 400g apart in their empty weight. Equipped with a Garmin G1000NXi, autopilot, IFR capable and very comfortable I enjoyed flying them for sightseeingflights with passengers.

While spending holidays on Marathon Key in Florida I had the chance to fly that beauty with an instructor for 30 minutes including some aerobatics. That was real fun! I just love those oldtimers! :-)

One of the fastest planes I flew in my career as a privat pilot. I started transition to this nice 1984 Mooney 201 in summer 2019 and had to take a break later due to lack of time. Unfortunately the plane was then sold to the netherlands, so I couldn't finish my complex-rating yet.

A nice german basic trainer which was in the selection process to become the new standard trainer in our flying club. In the end the Tecnam P2008JC (as seen in the background) was chosen.
