The control tower at Arlanda Airport, north of Stockholm. Viewed from the departure entrance between Terminal 5 and Sky City. It's worth mentioning that opposite to my own experience in our neighborhood, almost all flag and lamp poles are straight in this picture! Isn’t that amazing?

It's not so special to watch Henrik playing with ants. He does that everyday. The special is that he is playing with ants inside the property of the Russian Federation Embassy in Stockholm. And the Porsche 356 is special too, of coarse!

Tullinge Airshow 2004.

The airport ESCN was in use from 1946 to its closure in October 2004. Personally I don’t understand why it is necessary to claim this particular land for an extensive housing project, when there are so much unexploited land in this, probably the least populated country in Europe, with an average of 20 inhabitants per sq km.

A motorcycle accident on a road with lamp posts forced the helicopter to land in this narrow glade.
It was less than 3 meters between the rotor blades and the tree branches, both in front and to the right of the aircraft.
