Cheers all,

Plans have now changed. The reason for the trip is for filming of the island for a series called "Britain's Finest Natural Wonders" which my brother is presenting. The crew were to be flown in on two flights, one 4-up and one 3-up (to be filmed for the programme.) However, with the info gathered so far this option has been binned. Therefore a 150 will be used (for the landing shot.....less weight and less aircraft to repair if the nosewheel falls off) with the crew travelling over by boat. Unfortunately this means my old man will do the flying and I won't be going (gutted.) Other filming for the programme, on the South Devon coast, will be done from a Mignet Balerit. I'll keep you all informed when and on what channel the programme will be shown.

BRL - Sorry not to be able to give you a first hand account, but I'll certainly post any useful feedback for any interested Ppruners.

Many thanks once again.
