TRIP REPORT | Landing in a storm! |AIR MALTA| Airbus A319-112 | Malta Luqa - Rome Fiumicino|

Welcome to this new trip report!
This time I flew from Malta Luqa (MLA/LMML) to Rome Fiumicino (FCO/LIRF) testing Air Malta, the flag carrier of this islands.
The flight was operated by an A319-112 all-white livery at the time, now repainted with standard KM livery.
There was a heavy thunderstorm over FCO during the approach, so we had a turbulent landing.
I hope you'll enjoy!

Greetings

Emanuele
