  • Return flight from my First Solo Landaway, flying Cardiff to Bristol.
    In this video I route out of Cardiff via the Wenvoe VRP, enjoying stunning views of Cardiff before crossing the water towards Avonmouth.
    Once at Bristol I am required to hold and complete several orbits to give way to other landing and departing traffic.
    This flight was rather tricky with turbulent conditions that made it difficult to maintain altitude.

    There's a simplicity to your videos that I like. Good inspiration ahead of hopefully my first lesson this weekend out of EGBJ. Cardiff will definitely be in my go-to list of possible NAVs since it's currently my homebase.

      Thank you I really appreciate your comments. Ah yes EGBJ, a great place to learn! It gets very busy, but you're in good hands at Gloucester. Please feel free to message me directly via the Facebook page:

    Enjoyed this one Chris I’ve ended up moving from EGBJ and now studying out of EGSY ( St Athan) so the Cardiff radar controllers really are a pleasure and have a lot of experience with students. I hope you pop over again soon.
    May be get to share the blue skies with you soon

      I know a chap who is based out of St.Athan after gaining his PPL in Bristol. I keep meaning to fly there, so yes it's a possibility! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

      Cheers Josh, yeah threw a spanner in there slightly! I wasn't happy with my altitude keeping. Got thrown around a little over Cardiff and during the orbits at Bristol, but overall it went well for the first landaway!

      @@CJThePilot at that stage of training that’s completely fine. You flew safe and shown good airmanship. Even after passing my altitude keeping needs a brush up.

    Love this video CJ! Keep them coming! :-) I'm looking to work towards my PPL training from Cardiff when they open back up so this video is very useful and gives a good insight to flying around the area. Thank you :-)

      Thank you Steven! I'm glad if you find this video useful. It's a great area to learn to fly, especially when you start doing Radio Nav as BCN is close by. Good luck when you start!

      Amazing mate, I've only just realised. Must have been just before I got to know you all that you were doing the ATC. You know once things return to normal you have to come up for a flight?
