Every time the weekend arrives the winds seem to
go around to the North and blow a gale, and we just cannot safely fly. Is
it a conspiracy? However
we found that we had a Monday free and the weather was great if a little cold,
so off we went.
We
had not been to White Waltham in a while, so we took off and decided to have a
good fly around before we landed. It was lovely to see the countryside
beginning to show signs of Spring. maybe the weather will get warmer
soon. Upon landing we were very pleased to see our old aeroplane HW
sitting safely on the front line, maybe this summer we will see her fly!
We
took on fuel and therefore we were offered a free landing, which is always
helpful. Excellent coffee and bacon rolls completed the White Waltham
experience. John of Tiger Moth fame arrived shortly after we had eaten and
we decided to fly out together and I would attempt to take a video of FM.
It was very cold and John was soon telling us he was heading back. We were
cold in AY I can fully understand what he must have felt like in the open
cockpit.
Great
to escape again! |
