  Less time for Aviation

   » ‎ Clear of Cloud

  First Passenger Flight

   » ‎ Clear of Cloud
  After visibility thwarted my first attempt to bring H flying last week, yesterday's weather more than made up  for it.  There was a nice, steady, 10 knots blowing; some scattered cloud at 2,

  No I hadn't given up

  I hadn't given up.  A bad dose of sinusitus and badly needed holiday to Rome explains my lack of activity recently. So what's new?  Well, I went flying today - just a few circuits to by way
