06/09/2008 Test flight

I received a test flight in a small aircraft as a Father's Day present this year from Elizabeth and Andrew. When we arrived at Henlow Airfield we discovered that, for a small fee, Anna and Elizabeth could "come fly with me". We had nearly an hour in the air altogether, and the photos below show us and where we went.Myself and "Peter the Pilot", a teddy that formed part of my present.
The three of us in front of the four-seater Cessna.
Ready to go!
