Had a great day yesterday. Started out with a longish drive across Sussex to a farm strip near Heathfield to join Whiskey Kilo Wanderer and his Rans S6. A superb little aeroplane flying out from a grass strip, that is what grass roots flying is all about really isn't it, what a superb way to spend a bank holiday monday.

It was good to meet you all, the old faces and new ones, great to put names to faces etc, I agree with Mono though, I reckon there were people knocking about not saying anything...!

I also had my first trip in a taildragger, DubTrub kindly offered me a ride in his and off we went, he even let me have a go the mad fool!!!! Anyhow, many thanks for that Dub, it was great fun.

We also popped into a fly-in on the way back at a strip near to Bishops Waltham, I can't remember the name, little or long something, anyhow, very nice place, warm welcome and a free bbq thrown in! Nice place.

A few pictures........ For now, no room on my web space bit so will sort it out later.
