They have a fly - in to Lundy Isle to the west each summer but,grass and rough there and not for a Cirrus.All the best. John

Nice flight Stef and Phillipe! I loved going down to Lands-End the other year staying in Penzance, picked the South coast up at Weymouth all the way to Land-End orbited the visitor centre like you did (had to avoid Culdrose due to traffic) then the next day routed around the Northern coast line onto the edge of Bristol's airspace, truly spectacular coastline. BTW the Menai Straits and Caernarfon and views of Snowdon are also a lot more pleasant in fine sunny weather! Right onto Part 4 in a bit!

Amazing to see you fly into St Mary’s. I’ve flown the Lands end to St Mary’s routine in a twin otter a couple of times. The Scilly islands are amazing. Fond family memories with my grandparents and flying the old British Helicopter service “flying house” back in the 90s from Penzance. Hope you managed a pint in the mermaid!

Hi Stef. I have enjoyed your flying adventures in and out of Australia. Something you ought to take on board about your latest posting on the leg to "The Isles of Scilly". Not the 'Scilly Isles'.
