Tomorrows forecast looks flyable so I am going to say it is on for the Fly-out
to Huddersfield (also known as Crosland Moor). The afternoon looks set to be
better
than the morning so it might be better to set an arrival time period from
12.00 to 13.00.
Huddersfield has 550 mtrs of Asphalt oriented 07/25 with grass off the end
making
a total of 800 mtrs available. If landing on 25 avoid low flying over the
houses and hospital .5 miles from the threshold. A restaurant is available on
the airfield. Call Huddersfield radio on 128.375 A/G and telephone for PPR and
more information on 01484 645784. The landing vouchers are in Pilot and Flyer
magazines.
Unfortunately I will not be able to get there (and I was so looking forward to
it), so can those who get there elect somebody to arrange the next fly-out.
Today I decided to change the water pump on my Mitsubishi Shogun. What a
nightmare.
After 5 hours I have removed enough that I can now move the pump (and confirm
that I have the right replacement), but I have still got to remove more to
get it out, and then I have got to reverse the whole process, and I need the
car fixed as we are off skiing with it on Wednesday. There's nothing like a
challenge
to put things into perspective.
