In reply to all, yes I could file a CA48 and cruise IMC all the way, but where is the fun in that? Plus, if it is windy aloft I'll take all day with my cruising speed. I have now decided to go up the west coast and refuel at Woodvale. After all, the aeroplane started life there in 1974 as the personal steed of the Boss of the UAS. But I'm sure Liverpool with give me a crossing at a few thousand feet. Alternatively route via Wallasey at 1500 ft.
By the way, if some of you think I am a fat old airline pilot only used to staring at a glass cockpit with the auto pilot engaged, think again. I have flown UK to Las Vegas single seat!
ps I'm not slim or young
