I decided to take this little guy out for a flight at Duxford - but when i took him out of the hangar - the snow was so heavy that it would of pushed him right into the ground, once he got airborne, lol

So, i took him next to the runway, and we waited for the snow to stop, and there was quite a bit when it stopped snowing!!!!

Ok......this is a bit odd

Five hours later...

Finnally - i get to fly

Wahoo!!!

Ouch

Mike remember just because you can soar like a bird doesn't mean that you can land like one Wink

Airport good, oak tree bad Grin

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Actually, i was trying the same thing you did in that shot post where you took that spitty down to like 1 ft off the ground, lol. I tried to do the same, but as you can see it didn't go too well, lol Grin
