Planning on taking my 6 year old son for his first proper flight later in the week. Plan A is Bembridge and a wander down to the beach, but that might have to be canned if the prohibition on leaving the airfield stays in place.
Plan B is to overfly some windmills (he is obsessed with them and has an encyclopedic knowledge of them, including correctly identifying the location of a converted mill in the property section of a Sunday paper). A visit to a windmill would make up for no beach in his eyes. So I need a strip or airfield within about 20 minutes walk of a mill (derelict or complete does not matter either way).
We'll be in a PA28 Arrow so strip needs to be suitable for that, open and no prohibition on leaving site.
Ideas?
Old Buckenham doesn't count, we live there!
