Flap62, there is no need to be so aggressive.
M-o-t-F makes a very valid point. If you compare the Wx at the Covert Oxonian Aerodrome yesterday afternoon with the limits required for VFR of an aircraft flying above 140 KIAS outside CAS, you can only assume that they found a
very lucky route.....
Whether there was a bit of "The Show Must Go On" for Eddie F or not, I do not know; neither is any criticism of the crew appropriate. But a pound to a pinch of poo they'll undoubtedly be more conservative next time.
Bloody amazing, nonetheless....
