I had to break cover from my long sabbatical as this brought back memories of @CaptBob_Nomadic stocking up on these to keep him going on long sectors😉
127 aircraft registered for this superb fly-in of up to 100.
Friday p.m. 98 confirmed. Only 68 materialised on a gorgeous summer’s day. Where were the missing 30😳? Pilots🙁.
Some unique visitors👌.
And my day was made when I was informed by a passer by, that my aircraft was the sexiest looking on display 🥰🤗.
Listened to a very inspirational interview only weeks ago.
What a terrible loss.
If only The UK had more with their fingers on the geopolitical pulse as this man.
Ever wish you were somewhere else?
Warm weather; white uncrowded sandy beaches; clear unpolluted sea…..
And at this point, I just learned that Air Seychelles had started operating to Paris CDG via Hurghada and are now using a Hi-Fly #AirbusA340 non stop.
One longhaul sector & 2 shorthaul sectors to get home avoiding DXB last week. Two new airlines and one new type.
Enjoyed this one the most.
Some pilots that I looked up to, always said that after a failed 2nd Approach, divert. Only disregarded this advice once as I knew my initial failings. This is a real ‘butt clenching’ UK #Farmstrip # #Airstrip not for the feint hearted. Saw 1 land, after the 5th attempt today☹️
I am so glad that my Apple Carplay has found @tompetty & the Heartbreakers ‘Learning to Fly’
And after watching some of yesterday’s #Goarounds , his words, ‘Coming down is the hardest thing’ rang true for one or two #Pilots in their #Aircraft .
On our way to dinner in the #AviatHusky in the company of the #Autogyro and then returning home towards a beautiful sunset. Hopefully captured by the Go Pro.
Checkride with my instructor earlier this week. Visited three #Airstrips two of which were first time for me. This is actually the very first strip that I landed 🐸 at away from my Base almost 9 yrs ago.
Visited my old #Farmstrip base in the #Cotswolds in the #AviatHusky yesterday. Lovely visit and the farmer filmed the #Takeoff
Inbound to Meppershall, home of @AircraftLtd to collect the aircraft, which is outside the hangar, from its Annual #AviatHusky

Spitfires doing a low pass over the former RAF Grimsetter, now Kirkwall Airport this afternoon.
What an incredible site to behold. Please do share this video and give the pilots and Spitfires the honour they deserve.
This #BeaglePup was the first light #Aircraft I flew from the front left hand seat, in the company of Ben Gunn, the #Beagle Test Pilot. My father had just flown it before, giving a fabulous aerobatic display which enthralled me! It is so well looked after & looks great.
