I remember going into Suburgh (EGPB) mid 70's. .wind 240/70g80 one guy says "let us know when there is a lull" ATC " This is the lull!". .Seriously, been into EGKK acouple of times in the last few days, hard work! Sitting at the holding point seen some pretty impressive handling. well done guys n galls.

On another point, being past the age of reason and having to fly a turbo prop, I found the sheer physical effort required to put the beast on the ground, quite demanding. How do some of our more slightly built female colleagues cope with this?
