Good Friday 2016 - Trip to East Yorkshire

[Choppa]

Flew out of Blackpool on the best weather day of the Easter weekend to Eddsfield (near Scarborough), then Beverley, Breighton & back to Blackpool. All in all, a good outing.

This is the route...

Some great photos there Mike, especially Blackpool and the pleasure beach. 



Although I love the idea of going up in a light plane its always the thought of the noise for me, I suppose I've been spoilt as I have been in a balloon and that was fantastic

The noise isn't too bad Dave - without a headset, yes but as all occupants always wear one, it's not a problem.

Not as quiet as a balloon though (they don't get any quieter) however, I don't think you could ever get me up in a balloon  as I am scared stiff of heights (I know, but it's different inside a cockpit)

As for the Pleasure Beach, I only managed to get the northern half of it. Must do better next time.
