Flight To The Isle of Man...

Hi all,

I am planning a flight to Ronaldsway at the end of the month, but am just feeling a bit nervous about the water crossing.

I have flown to Calais, Le Touquet and Jersey over the past 12 months, but now fancy the Isle of Man.

I will be flying a Cessna 150 Aerobat and will have Lifejackets and a PLB, but am trying to plan the best route. I have an IMC and Night Qual and about 140hours TT.

I am flying from Tatenhill, so was thinking of going to Hawarden, WAL then dct IOM. Would you go this route or would something like Hawarden, Anglesy then dct IOM be better?

If I go WAL dct IOM, would it be SVFR as I'd be in Class A?

I appreciate any help.

Many thanks,

Scott.
