QNH,

North Essex/South Suffolk tends to merge anyway..Its only just in Suffolk.

I've heard of (but not seen) a Prentice being flown out from Nayland! Not the worlds best performer in the R.O.C dept, as I'm sure anyone who's flown one will agree. Which makes me wonder how far down the hill he was before the wheels left the ground.

I was 'Lucky' enough to have logged 40 mins in one once, and was convinced we only got airborne cos the Earths curvature effect, and because we had a concrete runway! How the RAF ever accepted it into service will always amaze me.

A wonderful place is Nayland, and all credit to Tony Harris for keeping it special!
