S'OK Neil, I never went near it in the end...... Barton had cloud at 800 feet, with occasional rain showers. Sometimes it looked more like 500 feet.
I wouldnt have set off for France in G-OPET, and we didnt think it was worth dragging the Chippy out for a ride around the circuit. But Sunday.... was tantalisingly wonderful... except that I'd cancelled my booking in the Archer so there was nothing to fly.
Good news on G_ATGO for the moment anyway .... the engineers have said the main block looks OK and wont need stripping down, so it's hey-ho for a new generator and back on the fleet she goes. Still costly but nowehere near as costly as we thought last week.
I kept in touch with proceedings via Rod and gathered everyone had a great time. grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
