Two good flying days

Yup, high pressure in charge and both today and tomorrow will be good flying days. Bright, sunny, bit of cloud now and then – but the important thing is, very light winds.

I’m typing this while having a short lunch-time break having taken the opportunity to give MYRO’s new cabin floor tubes a coat of gloss paint. Bit tricky, not helped by being a bit too impatient, so I got a couple of runs, but I don’t think I’m going to lose too much sleep over them 😕

I’m going to spend the rest of the afternoon tackling the back garden which is now like a mini-jungle. All the rain we’ve had lately followed by a few warm, sunny days have made for excellent growing conditions, so I recently got hold of a couple of large garden rubbish bags off Ebay and now it’s time to make use of them. But tomorrow is going to be different 😀

Tomorrow both Ken and Peter want to go flying in the X’air – Ken in the morning and Peter in the afternoon. I’ve already got a flight planned for Ken which should take about 1 hour 30/45 mins. As we won’t have a GPS fitted (we need to install a power supply when we re-do the radio installation) I’ve made sure we will be tracking highly visible main roads (eg the M25) and keeping to areas that I’ve covered a lot in MYRO. But it’s a great route and I think Ken will enjoy it and I also hope that I’ll be able to take a few shots with my still camera and camcorder while Ken’s on the controls. Peter and I will play it a bit by ear but Ken has suggested we try a few missed approaches at his field, as at some time he’d like to be able to fly the X’air in and out of there. Should be fun and it’ll be a great day if we get it all done 😉
