Trouble is the horrendous cost of getting a PPL(H) in the first place

I had a go in a Westland Wasp a couple of weeks ago and I reckon I'd take ages to get the hang of it. Bl Y impressive though!

Edited to include Zenair take off and fly-by video. It's a 12mb mpg file so unless you have broadband it will take a fair while to download.

The strip is exactly 250m hedge to hedge. At one end there is a 5-10' hedge and the other has 30' telephone wires about 50m further on from the 6' fence.
