This is an updated version of a previously upload trip. Hope ypu enjoy the changes.
Welcome to a little trip round airfields in Essex UK. Full of interesting places for everybody. The airfields we visit give a lot of variety. Some are easy and some are difficult. The tour includes visiting the sites of former Royal Flying Corps and RAF landing grounds. Essex is flat and near the continent making it the ideal location for aviation both military and civil. Watch out for hedges and ditches and be prepared to go around as some runways are short. Keep an eye on the Course Indicator (in External View) to get to the next waypoint. Select Map on the PFD to get an idea of where you are using GPS. You can pop out the PFD into a separate window by holding right alt and clicking the map.
We use the Flight Design CTSL for its ability to use short runways.
Weather is adjustable.
Flight length: 281nm
No. of legs: 21, however lengths can be very short.

I'm gutted. The Axe and Compasses pub at the second waypoint was severely damaged last night by a devastating fire.

I hope they can rebuild it.
