Florida is a dream location for GA flying right across the state. So many airfields and great welcoming people along the way.

A couple of memorable trips to fly-in communities, most notably Spruce Creek and it’s Downwind restaurant (think it’s now closed?).

And another community fly-in trip west coast north of Tampa where just 5 minutes after landing, finding ourselves parked up on some kind hearted fella’s driveway. Invited in to their home, offered homemade chocolate cake and drinking fresh coffee. Quite comical tbh. They do love a British accent.

Nearer to home, another vote for Compton A. But abit too busy when it comes to the cafe, with lots of visitors by road.

Caernarfon worthy of a mention. Huge Sunday roasts.

Waltham remains my favourite to fly into. Could sit there all day watching the world and Heathrow arrivals saunter by.
