Oh very nice - a varied choice of types. I'd like to do one for the experience, but I have no doubt the old backside will be twitching hoping the automatics do their job!
At the moment, I work in Airline Operations as a Disruption Manager for a rather large holiday airline whilst trying to...
Oh nice!
What were you flying. I’ve only ever done a CatIII autoland in the sim… real thing must be twitchy! Everything happens so fast in the last few feet when the runway lights appear!
I am indeed. I find it quite satisfying flying around then descending back in to gloop following an instrument approach, then having the runway appear where it should be. Sad I know! 🤣
I got flying on Saturday out of Oxford. Weather was a bit rotten (cloud base around 1300ft), hence climbing up so I could actually see where I was going!
Not sure they needed a study… jumping out of an aircraft at altitude without a parachute tends to be life-limiting. That said, I’ll take my chances, as there is no way I’m trusting my life to a giant hanky strapped to my back!
Ah right. I had a C150 Aerobat share-o-plane several years ago that developed an interesting wiring fault - it showed I had low voltage and high voltage at the same time! Took 3 or 4 trips to the maintenance airfield to finally get it rectified.
It’s good to see it busy, especially after the last few years.
Is that a Europa at the far left? I plan to build my own aircraft at some point (when time and money allows!) and it’s on my considerations list after watching ‘A Plane Is Born’ a number of years ago. Also like the look of the...
Your last sentence sounds like every C152 at every flying school 😂 I did my PPL in one - 2 people plus fuel… not a cat in hell’s chance it would be under MTOW!
A friend did his NPPL in a Eurostar which he seemed to like, but sadly doesn’t fly anymore.
I’m based in the Midlands, near Loughborough.
I’m currently around 123kg and 6ft 3, so not sure how many I’d fit in.
I used to be staff at a Volunteer Gliding Squadron where we operated the Grob 109B “Vigilant” and max seat weight was 110kg. We had to wear a parachute which weighed 7kg, so the absolute max we could be was 103kg - I was...
Nice to see another Pilot. I’ve not long returned from Poland as I was out there to do my Multi-Engine training, then EASA Commercial Pilots Licence. First time over there and really enjoyed it… even if I did spend 45 mins at one point at 1000ft looking at farms/countryside 😂
Never flown a...
Thanks for the reply. I have noticed there’s plenty of developers in the area now - Strata, William Davies and Persimmon to name a few… shame there’s so many new builds going up!
I’ve offered to help with various jobs for a local shoot over the springer/summer as and when time allows with a...
