It sure was! I blurred you though, sorry :sad:

A great flight though, we went out to Harwich/Felixstowe, then around the coast to Clacton where we turned inland and headed directly back to Andrewsfield using SE's panel-mounted GPS (I prefer good old-fashioned dead-reckoning navigation, but there's nothing wrong with playing with a GPS). Thanks to Paul for the flight - I wasn't expecting to be flying today but when he texted me to say he'd booked 'SE due to the good weather, and would I like to go along - I didn't need to be asked twice! So we took the opportunity to introduce my 7 year old daughter Katie to flying in a light aircraft (that's her in the back with the pink headset!), with the benefit of two pilots up front and my partner in the back with her just in case of a massive panic attack or bout of air-sickness! Fortunately neither occurred and she loved it - next time she wants to sit up front and have a go :grin:

Nice shots as always Doug, and a nice selection of visitors. Paul and I went to shoot some of them after we landed, but by the time we got back down to the parking area they'd all taken off!
