Well the Xwind was over my limit on Friday, however a friend kindly drove and I re-booked to fly in on Saturday a few minutes prior to the late morning cut off with very few aircraft booked at the same time.
Shopped and met folks on Friday and the drive was not bad at all.
Checked Saturday's booking and instantly cancelled as other aircraft booked on every minute leading up to and after my slot and even one at the very same minute.
Decided with only one set of Mk I eyeballs to look out round Pitsford it was best to blink.
