Looking forward to it :)

Please see below Flight Plan.

A laid back enjoyable exercise with no threat. The aim is to get to familiar with the Mossie and flying in pairs (with pilots alternating lead / wing as desired) It may be a bit of a learning curve with trim and speed control :)

After take off from Biggin Hill, head up to the Thames, south east to overfly the historic Chatham Dockyard and onto Eastchurch with a standard long straight in approach and landing.
A quick hop to Manston with a noprmal LH circuit and landing at the huge runway.... A trip low along the coast, under the Cliffs of Dover and Dover Castle, round to Folkstone and pick up the main railway which leads to Ashford and onto the middle ground between airfields High Halden and Headcorn, hang left to land at High Halden where the Mosquito's will be based.

There will be spare aircraft at Eastchurch, Manston & High Halden in case you sneeze on the way in...

Dont have a Mossie? You are most welcome to join us in a Spitfire, Jug or Mustang which will be available at Biggin Hill..

SRS please. RAFAir Server 4. TS 19:30 BST 18:30z

Flightplan will be autoplaced in your kneeboard
