I found a gaff 15 miles south of Bristol. It was perfect until Bristol extended its airspace. Now i am on the boundry of it!! That means if i wanted to land in one of the fields on the farm I have to talk to Bristol.

So what made you pick a T'hawk?

I flew the oldest T' Hawk in the UK when i first started to learn to fly... it was G-OATS up at Tollerton. For a T'Hawk it had a great climb rate. I heard that someone wrote it off last year...i think with a hefty tail strike. But it's ok the wings stayed attached.
