'Fraid so Ben and it has to be had while I'm still fit enough to have it :shock: :lol:

P.S. Flew in an open cockpit vintage Slingsby T21 last week. The last few mins of this video (circuit to land on runway 24 at Sutton Bank) give an insight into the fun to be had. As a pilot, chevk out how slowly the T21 touches down :shock:

Really sorry I’m going to have to cancel Eastnor, as just found out clashes with a family party.
Will miss you all
