Classic Pattern UK Sleap Flyin

Just home from a cracking day @ Sleap Aerodrome in Shropshire for the First Classic Pattern UK event of 2014.

Despite a rubbish weather forecast and pretty high winds there was a good turn out of some beautiful classic patterships including 2 originally owned by the legend Hano Preterner

I was invited down to fly the PB Models demonstrator of the Super Calibre and had 5 good flights with her.

My stead for the day



After lunch we were treated to a couple of full throttle low passes from the resident full size Yak 11 and a 10 min aerobatic display from full size Avalanche witch is another resident of the Sleap Airfield

Rain ended play about 3pm after a good days flying.

looks nice there

its a great site, good little club.

The full size is very active to, always lots going on, further to the yak and avalanche, there was also a piper cub, couple of cessnas a chipmonk and 3 or 4 other things flying round all day think there's 10 hangers there now with all kinds hidden away

and the café in the control tower is epic
