Tech/Engineering - Aerospace / Aviation / Space / trainee pilot's flight
Danish term or phrase: short phrase: venstre basse og finale bane 21
I'm doing a medical document where a trainee pilot with suspected epilepsy had an incident on a solo flight.
She was guided by the tower once she'd become conscious to: venstre rundt uden om Tune til **venstre basse og finale bane 21** (exactly as it's written).
Not sure about 'basse' - base?
TIA

Reference information:
Helen,
The text below is copied and pasted from an email received from my friend in Denmark who is working as a 'flyveleder' (person in the tower). I sent her your text just to clarify and this is her Danish explanation. Even though it is not a translation, I hope that you can use it for your own clarification.


quote start: Den der "basse" har jeg aldrig hørt om og kan ikke rigtig få den ind i sammenhænget. For mig at se har flyvelederen guidet hende ind på et venstre-drej som indflyvning og derefter givet tilladelse til landing på bane 21. Tune er en lille landingsplads og i det hele taget et lille anlæg (nr. på banen refererer ikke til antallet af baner). Jeg kan ikke forestille mig at "basse" er base. Sorry, jeg kan vist ikke komme det nærmere. Hvis det ikke er godt nok, så skriv igen, så skal jeg kontakte fagfolk ! quote end.
