I searched YT for 'C172 from Inverness' because I've just booked what looks like your trip - a 172 with instructor to fly up the coast! Thank you for posting, I have a better idea of what to expect now.

Weird how this ended up on my feed. Been on this flight many times. Barra is indeed stunning in the sunshine

I have lived near runway 10/28 all my life (I'm 66) and really appreciate your videos like this! To see Warton active after dark is also a real treat. More please.

Enjoying the dual camera setup and prefer to hear the radio work in your videos (as opposed to the music). Thanks for taking the time to edit and post.

Nice. I’ve always wanted to fly into this strip but not sure a warrior or tomahawk would make it.
@philipdobson89455 жыл бұрын
Hi Rob. Thanks for commenting. I live a few hundred yards from the strip so you can understand the fascination! I gather that the owner has, unfortunately, lost his medical and moved his Jodel from the hangar. His contact details are available in the flight guides (certainly AFE). I’ve also heard a rumour that the whole farm (including the strip) is to be sold and that the purchaser may stop the flying. I’m in contact with someone who has flown multiple a/c types into the strip and I’m pretty sure he mentioned PA28. I don’t want to give you his details without his permission but will contact him to see if he is willing to discuss. I’ve been in with C172 and C152 without difficulty. On first C172 visit it was flat calm and it all still worked out OK (having said that, I did have an instructor with me for safety!). I’m sure you realise that it’s in Manchester’s airspace. They really appreciate a phone call before you try and go in. Hope that helps. Cheers. Phil

you could turn right, safe if you're out of the circuit pattern. EGBO are not air traffic control so they can only advise. if in doubt ask. happy flying.

Hi Sada. Thanks for the comment. I usually fly from Barton but have a soft spot for Shobdon. I'm a civil servant - didn't know the plane's history prior to Herefordshire Aero Club. Are you still flying?
@sadajoshi32768 жыл бұрын
Not any longer. I flew G-BTAL a generation ago in 1980. I was then doing my PPL. I left for Canada soon after and have not maintained my license but love to watch videos such as the one you posted so keep it up! By interesting coincidence I spent a week in 2016 at Wychnor Manor and toured around Barton, Shobdon areas. I suspect the original Alpha Lima was retired and the registration re-issued to a newer aircraft. The aircraft I flew had a Lycoming engine.
