I&#8217;ve got the video thing cracked now and recorded footage of the whole flight, but as nothing much new happened, I won&#8217;t be putting together and posting a video of all six take offs and landings. However, I had to do a go-around at Condat, my first port of call, and as that was quite interesting, I have put together a short video showing what happened.<\/p>\n<p>As Condat is an &#8216;altiport&#8217; airfield, meaning that you have to land uphill and take off down, there was a pretty brisk tailwind on final. My first attempt wasn&#8217;t helped by 77ASY&#8217;s flaps that I&#8217;d set at 15 degrees for landing, unlocking and snapping themselves closed on downwind. It took me a few moments to reset them and as a result I ended up too high and too fast for a controlled landing. So I decided on a go-around and just as I climbed out a helicopter crossed my path at circuit height, joining to land.<\/p>\n<p>The video can be viewed by clicking on the image link below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Condat Go-Around (Savannah MXP 740)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/j1B9_JNG4fQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Saturday 21st January I repeated the flight that I did on 17th December but this time in the other direction.
