Re: LAA RALLY 2020 SADLY CANCELLED.
Steve Thanks for the early notification. I'm an enthusiast member of the LAA, rather than a flying member, and am a bit lacking in mobility so usually potter around Sywell on a mobility scooter. From where I stand - OK, sit - this is the only decision. In September 2021 we'll either be in control of...

2017 Rally on Friday - thanks, comments and photographs
What a lovely day - sunshine and lots of aircraft - what more can you want? In fact, the weather was so nice that I woke up with mild sunstroke on Saturday morning, so set off home to Scotland, rather than spending another day at Sywell. It may have been the weather, but an already happy and cheerfu...

Fun: Urban Air Samba at Popham - engine stopped - caption?
Another fun fly-in at Popham last week-end. A very impressive turn out by intrepid aviators, considering the forecast winds. :D As usual I was pointing my camera at the arrivals, and I was amused when the Czech-registered Samba landed - presumably on a demo flight - and the big cooling fan at the fr...

Re: AN2 pilot needed
I flew as a passenger in an An-2 once - a DOSAAF one operating out of Kaluga air base SW of Moscow. It had just come off a rebuild and was immaculate. Wow - was it slow. I have many years of experience with DC-3s (with Air Atlantique) including a transatlantic trip so I'm used to slow - but then the...

Indeed it was - G-BJOT was one of three D.11 family Jodels which prompted my observationAlan Kilbride wrote:Great pics Simon. I thoroughly enjoyed it too.

LAA Rally 2016 - Thanks
Another great day out - thanks to everybody involved :D I am now retired after working for some 40 years in aviation related jobs, and am pretty-well wheelchair bound. The annual LAA shindig at Sywell is at the top of my list of favourite outings - well organised, very disabled friendly, and full of...
