Thanks. You did seem a little low over the villages after departing - the lack of power set explains it. After hearing the roar of the engine during the power checks a few people were anticipating the complaints we'd get from the locals. They're not very understanding about Pa28's - never mind that beast. I guess self-enforced noise-abatement was probably a good thing
Talk of training/charter etc. was just a bit of wishful thinking unfortunatley - I must get a license first! (Was hoping to have it done in time for Sywell but thats not really an option now).
I was away on a navex so didn't really get chance to look at 'Annie' properly - I was just departing as you joined overhead and just shutting down when you were preparing to depart. Maybe next time...
