The Twenty Minuter

"So, we take off in ten minutes,
we're in the air for twenty minutes,
which means we should be dead by twenty five to ten"
Blackadder Goes Forth - 'Private Plane'


Microlight flight, East of Scotland microlights, East Fortune.

Absolutely fantastic. 2000 feet up in this thing on a lovely clear sunny day. Little bit 'choppy' at times. Pilot Gordon in control at all times and a real nice bloke.

Took a tour up to Musselburgh, then back along the coast and over Bass Rock, North Berwick et al. Cruising at 75 knots; in the air for an hour.

Got to do this again. Maybe over to Fife next time or down the Borders.

Caught up with the rest of the family incl M&D and went to North Berwick for lunch and to the park.

Lovely day out all round. Plenty fresh air for all and rosie faces.
