Credit where credit's due, the silica gel tip I got from the Barton CFI, Dave Duckworth, who has been incredibly helpful to me in setting up my aircraft rental arrangement with Barton.
He gave me many wise words - though I discovered the Bettaware product itself. (Refills are about £3.50 and last 3 months).
Yes, Low n Slow, I have been like an old mother hen over my 172. Felt almost tearful as I handed her over to the tender mercies

of the club. I got about 12 hours in on her myself before that, ferrying her about for little tweaks and upgrades. Very nice aircraft. She had her first customer today, who apparently was very pleased with her. I just hope everyone treats her right ! She's only available for PPLs, so wont get bashed and bumped around the circuit too much thank goodness.
