Yep! We were fortunate the contrails didn't give us away. The trips in later years were usually to Sherburn-in-your-hat for a fry-up at Sue's cafe. Almost as good as you'll remember from the epic Wellsbourne breakfast diversion. An impacted bowel and a bottomless teapot, surely the true purpose of general aviation..
