The Flying Monkeys

Now that Mark has got his PPL it was time for him to break away from the 'local' scene,

so we decided to take to the sky in G-BN!

We had planned to go to Calais for the day but found that you now have to give 24hrs notice to customs there

and had left it a bit late!........ so we decided on some other 'local' airfields!

Mark, Rob & Paul climb in to G-BN, Mitch & Graham climb in to G-MK & its off to...

Beccles and Old Buckenham.

Mark flying 'left seat' in BN.........

On the ground at Beccles, Paul's off to the bar!

After the famous 'Mustang Burger' at Old Buckenham it was back to Thurrock

for Mitch & Mark to do a 'formation landing' on runway 25 left & right hand!
