Hi,

I tried searching to see if there were other threads but I tend to find other issues raised by others and can’t find anything on this issue I’m facing

Someone has PM’d me and I can read it just fine, but there isn’t any reply button! I thought...

Mrs.K has a gazillion photos of our granddaughter on her phone, and one day it will run out of memory of course...now, we also have an old Samsung tablet in a drawer that hasn't been used in ages, and I thought that it would make a useful image...

Many weather apps and websites have rain radar views included.

Is it really radar derived data and if so where are the radar heads.

I guess I’m essentially asking how does this sort of system work?

I fear that my immoderate language in trying to clarify the options available caused the thread to be locked, sorry :( :oops:

Brize held a stakeholder meeting last week to present their near final design. Quite a few areas that were Class D are now "Class E + Conspicuity" (a terminology not fully explained but seems to Class E + RMZ/TMZ).

I’ve got a cold.
It’s been raining for 2 days.
Watched The Sound Barrier
Watched Spitfire I recorded from earlier.

Drop me a PM if interested.

Perhaps my short term memory is fading. I could have sworn I found a reference to a 'summer only' (perhaps) landing strip close to Fort William and I had thought the strip owner/operator had commented on inbound pilots should call him first as short...
