Lysander

I can't quite remember who was flying the Lysander but rest assured that he will not have busted his 100ft DA minima by a single foot.

We have Andy Sephton watching us display - thats enough to leave you quaking in your boots as you taxi in if you even 'think' you might have just busted the height/ crowd line. It is pretty difficult to manage this in windy/ turbulent conditions, especially if you are flying something light.

The Lysander is a really big machine so appearances may seem deceptive.

You say that it just missed your sun roof?

Please confirm that you weren't one of those freeloaders parked to the East of the field in contravention of all the signs warning them not to? (just joking - its clear that you were on the move)

We are planning fresh initiatives this year to stop freeloaders trespassing on those fields - all Shuttleworth property - and deluding themselves that to stand on the public footpath near the threshold of 21 is OK. It most certainly isn't.
