There are way too many pictures of sunny CAVOK days here , so here is my contribution to balance things up a bit. Genuine Yorkshire Clag, flying westbound from the Humber Bridge along the estuary. My godson's very first flight - "The best day of my life - ever" was his quote, so I promised to take him up on a blue sky day soon for even better views.

The gorgeous Voight Corsair at Woodchurch 2005. (photo inspired by an advert of certain brand of watches, often accociated with aviation)

In no particular order...
Short final for 27 at Shobdon - me on the left, a work colleague (now NPPL) on the right. The Archer from the RAF Benson club.
The Severn estuary on the way home from the first picture.
Cruising along on the same trip.
The Catskill mountains in New York State (a little navex from/to Danbury, CT)
Home base, with the tail of a PA28 intruding a bit...

Not exactly private flying but one of my faves, I had about an hour sitting at the end of 27L at Gatwick early one morning. Had the camera with me as it was new so took a load similar to this.

This is one of the PA38s I learnt in (my favourite this one cos it did seem to cruise at 90N and not all of them could) parked up at Valencia international - my first visit to an international too, notable for a Ryanair plane waiting for me to land at the end of the taxiway. Yes it was as hot as the open door suggests !

One of our dog, taken whilst flying over Loch Tay!
View of Loch Tay in winter
That's all I've currently got on Photobucket - work firewall precludes uploads, so I'll have to post more from home.

A few of mine
Aerbabe and an old aeroplane of mine - HAL26 Pushpak
Same rare Indian trainer in its natural environment
My chum William and I on our way to Rochester for breakfast over the
Colchester Garrison earth works. We bumped into tKf at Rochester
The Pitts doing what it does best
More of the same, boring old sh!t
An artistic one:
Pitts 2112, a former Red Arrow and me all having too much biplane fun!
and finally a little gem that I owned for only a few months last year

The aeroplane I've done most of my training in, after landing at Sandown on a bit of pre-skills test navigation practice.
