- Directed by Charlie Russell, this film follows three teams of obsessive microlight enthusiasts who navigate their way across Britain armed with a map and compass, sleeping under the wing, and doing their best to keep their aircraft in one piece - while at the same time clocking up more miles than everyone else.
Antony Woodward (Author of the excellent 'Propellerhead' book, described by Pilot magazine in May 2011 as 'one of the best books about flying ever written'), teams up with his former flying instructor Will Knowles to take part in the prestigious 'Round Britain Rally' last summer-15 years after he crashed in Scotland whilst taking part in the event back in 1996.

Thank you so much for posting! I've been looking for this for years!

It's about time the RBR came back, I competed in 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995 and 1996, bring fortunate enough to win 1st plce in solo flexwing in 1995. In 1996, flying dual flexwing, we had to hold near Barton whilst the German TV airship took off to cover the Germany game in Euro '96. Pete (inforunately no longer with us) was still drunk on the back from the celebrations the night before at St.Michael's, so no help as we held under a great black cloud andwerebounced aroundthe sky, whichconviced me to go "fixed wing".
Here after reading the book Propellerhead , ( Antony Woodward )from the local library here in Gorey Co.Wexford found by pure accident . The best sort of learning. Random , unexpected , and chaotic often leads to interesting outcomes. Thoroughly enjoyed the book , recommend it to anyone thinking of starting to fly and looking for bravery.
Snap Andrew...I enjoyed it that much from the library I went out and bought it. Great read!
Flew with Willy at Banjul in The Gambia. Most relaxed and best instructor 😅 Happy days.
