Oh God.

Here we go again...

I hate it. I love it. I hate it. I love it...

(Look at it sitting there like it's the sweetest little creature on Earth, with it's tusks...)

Okay. I'll fly...

Use the 737 FMS to follow the magenta line?

- you know what you can do with your magenta line mate!

Alright Lads, alright...that's enough vintage... (only joking)

Somewhere over Portsmouth, UK, inverted.

Busy morning...

As well as being a pilot I'm also an avid sailor.

I must say that the Orbx England Southampton docks is incredible. I came up here on a foul tide and took a few shots.

Then, I set sails and...

It's a good, solid aircraft C, It flies by the book.

I trust it.

Here we are (round the back of Maintenance 2 at EGKK) about to prep for a one hour flight to EGDR. (Sorry about mad wide-angle...

Cheers C
That means a lot,
Yep, I love the old NGX too. Arrow of choice when flying VA, etc, but it's great to have it in Mil livery too.

Nick, that is a beautiful tribute and a very moving image.

:engel016: DaveB gave me the gen on Merlins, Lynx, Aircraft Carriers and a load more. Most of the stuff in my Hangar and Dock is there as a result of his experience and generous information. RIP...

I was passing Pompey (like you do!) and took up station on Portsdown Hill to take a look at her. My trusty Nikon decided to have a Battery Crisis so I was left with nothing but my iphone and my Binos...

Sometimes you ain't got time to admire the pretty view...

Inverted (love the way the RADAR trace on the right MFD is reversed as a result), 450Kts,...

Harrier champing at the bit...

Steve's lovely Cloud Shadows I'll be bound. :encouragement:

Landed on the RWY at Portland?
Wow - who needs a VTOL £28M pound Harrier (or a $120M dollar F-35B) when you can VL that!

Nice one Centurion! :encouragement:

Also, I love flying EGHF to EGJA but for the last few times I've done it (with AS2016) I've been given 32 to Land even if the wind is blowing straight down 08 for 26. Strange. Even when I did it in...

Excellent. Hope I didn't disturb your flight back from EGJA.

I was the loud beggar making a lot of noise over Portland! (see above) :encouragement:

That looks like a nice steady kite Dave. Bet she's beautifully stable in the climb.

Best

Unlike this total Yob.

Sick of the British weather - so I cleared the skies over Portland, Dorset and put the Harrier through its paces...stick forward; cows get smaller (for a change)...and are upside down.

Interesting Dave. Taking a good look now. Thanks. :encouragement:

I agree wholeheartedly Wombat.
I've been really enjoying flying the ultra recently. I've been making loads of smaller grass strips that exist real world in my local area and checking them out...
