Has anyone got any more information on the succesful record established for number of airfields visited in one day which was undertaken at the end of last week. I heard a brief mention that 62 airfields had been visited on a news bulletin on the radio but that was all that was said.
:cool:

I seem to remember a record being set of 101 or 105 last year, with a big article on it in flyer or todays pilot.
So 62 would seem low.

I think the record you are recalling was 102 airfields
completed in an R22 by two pilots from Shobden.
This last record was in a fixed wing aircraft, somewhat
more challenging.
I am impressed that you think its a little low.
