Last one for 2022 from me ... and added to the Wiki. Prospero, could you please correct the auto-correct typo in the title: it should be Ardua, nor Ardour! Edit = Ardua, actually … sorry!

I think I've done the Wiki addition correctly; it's LCY-Billund day trip by Dornier 328Jet (if the idea is to just update the Wiki and not post here, mods pls delete!)
