Wow!

Just brings home how small the UK is compared to Canada and the USA. From my home airfield, 800nm in almost any direction by my reckoning would land you in another country. Although a C-152 would have ran out of fuel after 600nm probably. Did you see much variation in weather over the distance? I'm interested, since Canada is a much larger land mass than the UK. I've heard many people say that our 'variable weather'* is partly to do with being an island...

I'm off to fly excercise 6, straight and level flight tomorrow. One day, I'll fly to Dublin for a pint of Guinness (and stop over!). If I chicken out I'll probably make it fish and chips in Blackpool!

Take care,

Matt.
