Took Dave Flying

Dave and I teach at the same school. He is Head of Science.

Yesterday I took a colleague and great mate, Dave, flying. And what a great day for it. Winds were very low and there were almost no gusts, so it was perfectly smooth. Low wind and doubled weight lengthened and shallowed out the take off, and range was halved, but we did three flights out to Framlingham, to Saxtead and about.

I did a check flight before taking Dave up and that circuit on its own was glorious.

We hovered over some very grand houses

But my favourite shot is very much more modest, the hangar.

Altogether a superb day's flying!
