Beautiful Evening
Well it certainly was. Just called up to CVT for a beer and to blow away the cobwebs on the old pushbike...It's about 7 miles each way, and was well worth it tonight.
The airfield was so peaceful, interrupted only by a nice Bolkow Junior taxiing in and an Electra being towed into the hangar.
I haven't been flying much recently, and just getting back around aeroplanes brings it all right back.
To top it off a hot air balloon appeared south of the field and it's burners shone out like a lighthouse...Never thought the Midlands could look so good
Anyone get flying this evening? Was it you in the balloon!?
If only it wasn't so expensive!

Hi Mike
It was yet again a beautiful day. Did not manage to get up today but had a truly wonderful flight yesterday late afternoon in the Citabria.
Just enjoying some general handling over sunny Northamptonshire bimbled over to Sywell but unfortunately forgot they close at 1800 during the week so will have to go back another day for that cuppa.
Hope the weather will be equally nice this weekend with the GVFWE and next week when I will have an entire week off and an aeroplane for some more bimbling.

PS: We had some email exchanges a few weeks ago 'bout RV how's things in that department?
