I'm flying from Coventry, which is quite funny because there's this huge runway where 737s etc. land and there's us in our little SEP. I swear we could almost take off width ways

I'm your age too as it goes.
I'm going to go for 1 per week, something I had not budgeted for but I have wanted to do this for years... time to dip into the savings!
Yep, already got my eye on the GoPro... wanted it for motorbike for a while, now I have double the reason. My boss is quite concerned that I might start biking to flying lessons...
