New 'wing rescues two wings: When flying goes bad - Episode 2

[@BigBadLoneWolf]

That carb problem , is a good reason to practice dead stick approach and landings. Carol's reaction the the " I like a good MATZ penetration" comment was exactly as expected. BTW, I don't think it is a good idea, to tell the missus, that the new bike has a bigger and wider pillion seat 😂

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Indeed….

[@colingoldthorpe5918]

A guy i worked with was a private pilot. He said it was a great hobby but more expensive than drugs !!! His wife was a procurement agent at our plant and she wholeheartedly agreed. Glad to hear the Dad jokes are still there LOL!!! MRS TMF with the eye roll, she's a real sport you are a lucky man MR TMF!!!!!

You know your life is good when you have a big comfy bike to jump in as aeroplane replacement! The southern English landscapes keep blowing me away. I think the degree of cloudiness on the day of your journey even added to it, all just right! Man, I need to get to see England again, it's been too long! ☺

[@OldDogZeroTricks]

I'm enjoying the different series you have on this channel. The flying stuff brings back memories. I partly grew up in Oakley, a couple of miles from Basingstoke, but worked at the AA in Basingstoke, based at The Durie Centre. It has been a long time since I've lived in the UK, but the tower block you mention might be the old Fanum House which belonged to the AA for many years. Back when I worked at the AA the security used to let me go to the observation deck at the top of that tower, where I'd use my CB radio for half an hour. The signal could reach for miles! I did take my car and motorcycle tests in Basingstoke. The town is nicknamed doughnut city for all of its roundabouts.

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Excellent! I too was a CB Radio fan back in 1981 (remember "CB/27/81"?) - I bet the signal banged out from there for miles - great in skip conditions....

[@OldDogZeroTricks]

@@TheMissendenFlyer I wasn't aware of CB/27/81 at the time. I just had a 40-channel (+ Mids) rig at home with an amplifier and subtle aerial on my roof, and a 40-channel handheld for walking around. Met people from various walks of life. It was within a couple of years of selling my GPX 750 (back to bikes) and enjoying a second-hand Renault 5 GT Turbo. I hope you get to test ride the 2023 Niken GT when that launches. I'm curious what reviewers like yourself think of the changes. I enjoyed your review of the current Niken. Cheers.

[@davidkrueger2372]

[@andrewmeads6136]

Good vid - thanks. I’ve driven the 303 more times than I can count. Most of the time the traffic is caused by muppets who won’t merge in turn when the road narrows to single lane. Outside the high season it’s a nice drive. Stone Henge heading west is a lot better since they closed the road that used to go across the plain and cause huge tailbacks while people waited to turn right!

[@stanbembridge1751]

Loved it Andy that was brilliant your wife Carol is such a good passenger👌🏽 whether in the plane, or on the Honda Goldwing she is so laid back and cool, twas so lovely to watch the change from the plane to the Goldwing at Basingstoke.. absolutely brilliant combined video👌🏽👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽😁🙏🏽💙

Looking forward to the rest of the series. Boscombe Down had the Black Eagles Korean air display team resident a few weeks ago, so we got some amazing views of them practicing their air displays prior to Farnborough air show.

[@RichardASK]

I saw the Black Eagles at Fairford in July. They were the best Air Display Team, that I've ever seen, and this was the view of pretty well everyone there, Sorry Red Arrows, but they are now now on a higher level, but hopefully when you get a new/better aircraft, you can once again regain 'top spot'!

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Yes I saw the black eagles at Fairford also, and I drew the same conclusion as Richard - the red arrows really need to up their game, they were disappointing in comparison.

[@stevethebikinggrandad]

I live practically on the edge of Boscombe Down but was on holiday in Cornwall at the beginning of July when the Black Eagles were doing most of their practicing. I did see them a few times, but was gutted I missed most of their rehearsing!

[@pw3591]

Suspension is a "black art" I recently stiffened the compression & rebound damping on my T7 to settings recommended by an Enduro school that runs a fleet of them. Strangely enough that made the ride noticeably smoother on the road, which may be counter intuitive, but I guess it's all about allowing the tyres to follow the contours of the tarmac.

Enjoyed that video, I was born and bred in Salisbury, moved to Shaftesbury for 20 years and am now back in Salisbury so I know a lot of the area in the video very well - including the A303 that I've driven on more times than I care to mention! I did have to chuckle to myself when you said Compton Abbas was just over the hill when it looked like you were actually going past Mere! I've cycled past Compton Abbas airfield a number of times when I lived near, but never stopped there until last weekend when myself and Mrs SteveW were out on my Interceptor for a little two-up ride. I didn't realise it was such a popular biker spot until we got there and saw how many bikes there were in the car park! Lovely coffee though from the runway cafe hut 🙂

Hi , Greetings from Ireland, I used to live about 15 / 20 miles from Basingstoke and grew up around that area and that tall building originally was the UK headquarters for the AA (Automobile Association not Alcoholics Annonomous !!) .... don't know what's in there these days but everyone my age still refers to it as the AA Building . I was over myself on the bike a few weeks back visiting family and turned off the m4 and cut across and picked up the A303 .... I do like that road on a bike but unfortunately as you mentioned it was the tail end of Solstice so place was heaving and traffic was awful all on a stinking hot day ..... but secretly still enjoyed it 👍 Big fan of your videos and the chanel, I don't fly but enjoyed that to 👍 Cheers Alan

Great to see a Concorde up close, 102?, even if it is still full of all of the flight recording computers!! Plenty of other interesting flying machines - military mostly, too and a mimic of a Naval Flight deck on board an aircraft carrier, quite clever. Really glad we added it to our southern tour, used the A303... stayed at Exeter for the night. Then past Truro and out to the coast at St Agnes. From there we walked along the coastline from St Agnes to the Perranporth airfield!! Hope you did the reverse hike!!

Traveled the 303 many times over the years. Heading eastbound, just a few miles before Stonehenge, there is an iron age hill fort called Yarnbury or Varnbury depending on which map you have. You get to it via an unmarked lay-by along the 303, on the crest of a ridge. Park up, hop over the gates, and you're there. Been several times, always deserted, good place to stop for a break, stretch yer legs and have an impromptu picnic. Cheers, Chris, in Cornwall.

The A30 is a lovely road to ride/drive. Slower than the A303 unless its the summer holidays. Plenty of good pubs on the A30 for a lunch stop. You'll enjoy it 👍.

Andy your making me home sick ! Stonehenge area is home to me! I know that road well and I remember crashing my GS 1,000 Suzuki on the A303 when I came down the slip road from Andover to find oil or chemical on the road the police said all over the outside lane dodgy time but really miss it as we only get down once a year now from the dreaded north where I now live reluctantly so much better down that end .The wing is looking amazing love that electric blue colour she looks mighty fine .👌👍
