LownSlow,
I hate to tell you, but Sleap is pronounced "Slape". Spoils most of the puns, I know.
Yep, Manchester are a pain; they reckon GA aircraft should be seen and not heard, and only seen at a great distance well outside their zone. Still, it gave me a chance to try and do accurate diversion navigating without drawing lines, something I've felt I should be able to do. I think it worked, didn't it? Well, we got there. And back
It was a very good day, and I've looked at the photos, and they're not very good, but I will post them...someday.
