Leipzig – Rotterdam

I’m departing from Leipzig/Halle airport towards the Netherlands. After half an hour of flight the first problem comes, the engine suddenly loses power and I start to descend. The plane reports no malfunction. Fortunately, the problem is solved by switching on the carb heater, which has probably started to freeze. For the following passage through rain showers, I leave the heater on just in case. The rest of the flight proceeds calmly. The Netherlands welcomes me with overcast, which recedes before Rotterdam, where I land.
