The British Antarctic Survey Twin Otter seemed to enjoy a few ILS approaches at Norwich this afternoon .... So much so that it landed and is stopping overnight ... Photo of it landing into sunlight ....

Re: VP-FAZ Twin Otter Landing Today !
Thanks Tinky ! Well tomorrow brought little except rain !! Back to Twin Otters ... My first encounter with a Twin Otter was in 1969 / 1970 when a Canadian series 300 was on a sales tour of the UK and I was lucky enough to be included on a test flight ... Over the threshold at maybe 5000ft the pilot turned and asked if we wanted to go home !! ... Well it seemed like two minutes later we were on that threshold ... My first experience of STOL ... complete with stomach in mouth feeling ??
