Holy mackerel - I just wrote a bundle and then the server got overloaded and binned the lot

Anyway Pulse - do you non R/T chaps have some culture crisis I can appreciate that a great Garmin and Bendix kit might look out of place, but what about a handheld just in case.

Bet you hate transponders? Think they + Mode C should be mandatory - sorry to be totally subjective.

Now I do not pretend to know how you non-R/T folk go about entering ATZ's etc - do you have to get PPO and give an ETA ?
Better than just appearing out of nowhere.

So you were in a Moth downwind. There was a recent thread that vaguley relates, but did Shoreham know you were coming.
I can only assume they did - spotted you joining at or around your ETA and were then able to inform the rest of those in the circuit about your presence.

Hence you go downwind - base - final .....and land if you consider everything prudent to do so?

I look forward to hearing just what you do do, so I know what to be prepared for.

Now to submit...............again
