There was a great example of this yesterday in the Calais area. Hot and sunny untill 15 miles from french coast then thick fog and a massive temp drop. a few miles inland and the temp rose markedly(not sure of the exact amount). By the time we got to St Omer it was really warm, appx 28'. Also found a delightfull restaurant called L'en Vol on the field with a flying owner and a lovely terrace to enjoy the day.
Have a look at www.lenvol-restaurant.fr to see whats on, booking is adviseable at the weekend! Made a nice change from the usual I also saw a Jodel fitted with a Peugeot Diesel, lifted straight out of a 600 series i think he said. It was a four pot turbo, appx 130hp but weighs in at 200kg inc all bits and bobs. Gave 100kn at 17ltr/hr, whats the rules on doing this sort of thing here?
PS sorry for thread creep chaps
