With the amount of flak that Vince is getting I'm beginning to feel a little sorry for the poor sod.
Vince. No doubt you will soon be deluged with books from the various authorities that you have upset, may I suggest you read a book, if you have time between interviews of course. It is entitled "The Killing Zone" by Paul A Craig. How & why Pilots Die.
It is an American book but applicable to any part of the world, or even the planet that you come from.
The basic gist of most of it is. Do not leave your comfort zone until you are very familiar with the current edges of it. I am quite serious when I say it should be read as part of the syllabus alongside the training manuals 2 4 6 & 7.
Perhaps you should read it as you next consider planning such a trip. 200+ nm with the latter part over hostile injun territory, in an a/c with a known fuel delivery problem under certain circumstances. To a destination that you had to be at, with a deadline, & with very few hours under your belt. The weather over most of Fife that day was not good with rain squalls & low cloud.
The pictures are great by the way, but there were about 50nm of views like that ahead of you & each way sideways, absolutely nowhere to put it.
This may be why many of us are so speechless at your intentions let alone performance.
