    Had to smile though when one of your colleges said " you would not get me up in one of those planes" and that is coming from someone riding a motorcycle on public roads! :-)

    Saw something about Wickenby, either last year or year before & completely forgot about it. An earlier comment on bikes going there in preference to Willingham, probably explains why some days Willingham has been much quieter than expected. Will have to give it a try. Nice one.

    Good to see you out again, unusual to see such a big group. We sometimes call by the Touchdown cafe at Wellesbourne which is a very similar set up with light aircraft, always nice watching them lad and take off while having a coffee.
    There's no way I would go up in the red auto gyro thing! I'm probably over the safe takeoff load anyway!

    Excellent ride out, it was great to see such a large group and it made the crack even more fun. You're right about having reservations about flying in those motor propelled buckets. I think I'd rather attach a propeller to the front of my ZZR and get my Mrs riding pillion to stretch her arms out to create some downdraft 😂 I've subbed (again!!) as I'm sure I did before only UA-cam likes to rob small channels of any recognition 😕😤
