yay! QXC done and dusted today

Gorgeous day for it, silky smooth conditions and good viz. Had the ground briefing, this was loooong. Then out to the aircraft, inspection. Taxi out power checks complete, 25min hold waiting to go

Finally got in the air and set off for Prestwick. There was hardly any wind so it was easy going, got there in 40mins and did a gorgeous landing. Quickly got my bit of paper signed and a quick drink and I'm off again. Routed up to kilmarnock then round the glasgow control zone up to alloa. On to Newburgh and then into Dundee. Again a quick stop to pay landing fee and to get my second signature. Then off again back to Edinburgh. The whole trip was really good, very enjoyable. Tiring tho, I'll add to this description later with abit more detail, just want to chill for abit.

Happy flying! Surely some of you must have flown on a nice day like today?
