Don't know why I have been cleared to land via mobile at PIK refuelled and then departed again none radio after a hand swing. By the time I got up north there was still enough juice after shutting down to start the old girl.

I might add I was using Scottish info and PIK approach only. I think PIK I was interrupting the archers so if I was happy they were happy.

Hand swinging is another procedure that the majority of FI's will poo themselves when they hear it mentioned. I used to go for days when the starter was broken until the next 50 hour check was due.
