The beautiful Learjet 45 LNAWC of Norwegian airline Airwing is seen takingoff at Samedan bound for Stockholm Bromma. It was a pleasure to briefly meet the friendly Norwegian pilots which waved goodbye. Samedan Airport, also known as Engadin Airport, is a regional airport in the Engadin valley of Switzerland, 5 km from famous St. Moritz. The airport is surrounded by very high mountains.

Flying to and from this airport nested within the Swiss Alps is a great challenge for pilots and plane. Flight procedures and aircraft performances are very strongly affected by those high mountains. Flying through the Engadin Valley takes extreme concentration, skill and teamwork even for experienced pilots especially in crosswind conditions. The Engadin Airport is even the highest in Europe at 5'500 feet and also provides a most beautiful backdrop, dark forest and crystal blue rivers and lakes. I hope you enjoy the video!
