Sunday was a great opportunity to get out and do some flying again. With some cracking weather my friend and I went down to Goodwood in his Robin.Leaving Headcorn we headed down to Hailsham and turned West. From here we flew at 3,000ft over Shoreham and over to Goodwood. It was a busy day as it was the first weekend of good weather for quite some time.
We joined Runway 24 crosswind and followed another Robin around the circuit for a nice smooth landing. A cup of tea and a chat later we then returned via the exact route. It was super to be up in the air again and it was my first time in the Robin. I liked the Robin especially what seemed like an elevated view from the seat (compared to the Cessna 152) and the visibility above through the glass canopy. Something not available in a high wing Cessna.While it has been frustrating waiting for my QXC trips out like this remind me how fantastic it is to fly.
