FlightNight 27th Dec 2025. The final flight of the year.
8pm UK time.
As Christmas is passed, Santa's workshop need a resupply so the toy building for next Christmas can begin.
FGUK have been asked to fly in the cargo.
We will be departing from ENNA in Norway with the cargo of raw materials to be delivered to EFIV, Ivalo in Lapland where Santa's ground crews will offload the goods.
But that is not all. We have been in secret communication with F.E.A.R ( Free Elves Autonomous Regimen ) and they have asked us to smuggle out Liberated Elves that have been freed from Santa's sweat shops. We will fly them out at low level to avoid detection to freedom.
Full flight plan.
ENNA departure point. Climb to 7000ft at 180kts.
EFIV - Midpoint - offloading cargo.
ENNA - return leg flown at not over 1000ft agl, again at 180kts.

Its going to be twilight for most of the flight, so you will need cockpit lighting.
Comments
Years ago when I worked in a Snowball factory in Lapland, (We supplied to Auld Nicks gaff). Managed to sneak out this pic of a DFWS Mk4 system (Don't F%£$ With Santa).
Hope you all make it out!
