I spoke to Mark yesterday, having got a message through my work that he was trying to find out info about flying in the UK. 'Twas me who suggested he post on here as I'm not familiar with the GA scene any further south than Breighton. I did explain to him how much more expensive it is to fly in the UK than over here.

I hoped that he would get lots of pointers for small, friendly airports where the chat is good when the weather is not, and the flyiing is as good as the chat. I hadn't thought about the Tigermoth option, Broomstick, thanks for that one.

Mark, I have just thought of the Grace Spitfire. I don't know if she still does it (someone on here will, I'm sure) but you used to be able to fly with Caroline Grace in her two place Spitfire (for lots of money) from Duxford.
