Come Fly with Me

This is the bi plane I went onNotice the 'step' ladders used to board Mmmm do you really start it like this!!

Checking the petrol tank!Do you like the seats, there is only eight Complete with emergency exit, in the roof, just pull the ring to activate!


This is how close I was sat to the Pilot!


And we are air borne!

Wonderful views over the moors and reservoirs




Coming in to land

Well that was one fun day out, we flew over my house but I wasn't quick enough to get a photo. Average speed was 110 miles, and a height of 2,500 feet, a trip well worth the money.

I'm sure it was a lot of fun. But, I'm not too sure I could do that. Maybe if I had a couple of drinks to settle my nerves. LOL

The pictures are great!

Looks like a geat trip, and yes, that is how they start the plane. Someone has to wind up the rubber band.

I was with you until you went over the water - oh that's a little too much for me. I'm not too good over the wet stuff!

OK, I showed the hubby and now he wants to do that! He asked where you sign up? Of course, that means he has to take me to England!
