This was done to see whether GA travel to go skiing is practical.

It definitely is...

Lovely photographs there Peter. I like mountains in the winter!

Those images of the instrument stack brought back fond memories for me of some long-distance TB21 trips... I once almost did EGTK-LEMG non-stop. The aircraft would have done it with IFR reserves, but my bladder (output) and stomach (input) had different ideas as we approached the north coast of Spain, hence a brief stop at Bilbao. Happy days. Not a great aircraft to hand-fly, but a tremendous tourer and load-lifter.

I've done EGKA-LEGR here

I'd say the TB20 is great to hand fly, in terms of stability. I once hand flew Corfu - Santorini - Mykonos - Corfu - Cannes - Shoreham. But the ailerons are heavy relative to say a PA28, though that's a different argument.

Nice trip, I'm hoping to combine some altiport action with some Euro 2016 trips in June/July.

Need to have a match near Chambery so I can collect an instructor.

We did it in a rather less adventurous way; turbo arrow to Bron then hire car to Val Thorens...
