<\/a><\/p>\nWanafly would be a good place and time to stop off for a break and would also give me a chance to see Dave and Amanda again after dropping into them initially when I flew down from the UK to the Dordogne in MYRO back in 2012. Just how convenient a break-point in the flight it would be can be seen from the following timings, which are incomplete of course, as at this stage I can’t enter any wind details.<\/p>\n I’m having to keep my powder dry for the time being until I can hear what Robert at la Fert\u00e9 can organise in terms of availability of his 3-axis instructor colleague and until I know all I can do is wait for now. However, I don’t want to hang on for more than a day or so before hearing from him.<\/p>\n The logistics of the flight have been just one of the problems that I’m having to deal with. Just getting up to la Fert\u00e9 is another, and here’s what I’ll have to do to travel there from PLazac.<\/p>\n 1. To Brive la Gaillarde in my car with a friend. Friend to drive my car back. Such are the problems of getting across France by public transport!<\/p>\n As I write this, I’ve had it confirmed that Friday 5th is OK so long as I take charge of the Savannah the day before, which suits me fine. In the meantime, I’m waiting to hear if the ‘multi-axes’ instructor will be available on the Thursday. If not, after flying the other Savannah last week, I’d have no qualms about just doing a few circuits alone and then flying off the next day. So waiting now for confirmation of the final details and then I’ll just be in the hands of the weather \ud83d\ude10<\/p>\n Final edit just before going off to bed – it appears that the weather window is beginning to close. As of now it looks as though next Thursday 4 February will be the only day that will be flyable next week. And not only that, but it appears that we will then be in for quite a long period, a week or more, of unsettled wet weather. So it looks as though it could be some time before I get my hands on my Savannah \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve been thinking how I will need to go about picking up the Savannah.
