Ledwood's Summer Travels (Tatenhill & Gamston)

Post by Ledhead27 »

It's been a very long time since I've posted any photos on UKAR, so thought this was the perfect opportunity.

Since finishing my ATPL exams in Bournemouth at the beginning of June, I've had the chance to get quite a bit of flying under my belt as part of my hours building before moving down to London for my third and final year of university. The overall aim was to fly to as many new airports as possible, luckily I've managed to see some interesting things on my travels so thought I'd share them on here (including the usual going's on at my home base).

So without further ado, these are from my first flight of the Summer and decided to do a short flight from Gamston to Tatenhill for lunch. Nothing too out of the ordinary, although it was nice seeing a couple of older light aircraft at Tatenhill (the Cessna 120 and Beagle Pup in particular). There's also been a number of new residents at Gamston, especially the exquisite Nord NC.854S.

Cheers Chris, she's certainly something different and one of only three in the country!
