Let's Visit Blackpool Tower! A General Aviation Day Trip

In this training flight, we head west from Leeds Bradford Airport, taking in the sights over Blackpool and the Southern Lake District.
We were very lucky with the weather, enjoying quite a bit of sun peeking through over both Blackpool and Lake Windermere. However, we did encounter a difficult cloud base at times, with gusting winds making the landing at Leeds Bradford Airport more challenging than usual.
Overall, it was a great flight that provided amazing views while I learned how to fly the DA40 Diamond Star.

Hi Mate,
Dad & I are delighting in your content & channel.
My Father being a pilot himself, in the 70's adores your particular type of aircraft, could you please share any information for us?

Hey Ben, it’s a DA40, Diamond Star with an Austro Diesel engine and a Garmin 1000.
Hope that helps!
