Apart from that, Rougham airfield near Bury St Edmunds is under threat of closure by 31st May. Brutally short notice. Fly in and show your support - if you’re there on the morning of Monday 13th Feb we can say hello.

Aircraft in question was German ( as was the pilot i think) operating a specialist survey.
Aerial work - no age limit as long as you can keep class 2 medical.
there are a noteworthy number of pilots continuing to fly aerial work and training in the UK at that age and beyond.

With regard to the TRGB failure in the first link, some very good advice I was given during my rotary wing training.
During the pre flight walk round checks, the advice was: “Check to see if there’s actually any oil behind the stain on the sight glass”. I always rock the aircraft where possible to make sure what I’m looking at isn’t JUST an oil stain/discolouration on the inside.
