Although I have 'hung up my headset', I retain these pages online. I used fly little aeroplanes from Manston in South East England, hiring them from TG Aviation. I flew Cessna 152's and Piper PA28 Warriors.
This is a Cessna, it carries two
people. The picture is G-BFKH, known as Kilo-Hotel. In 1995 and 1996 I flew
from Manston to Lands End in this aircraft.
The Warrior carries four people. G-BCTA, known as Tango-Alpha is one of two PA-28's owned by
TG Aviation.
I started to learn to fly in September 1991, got my PPL in May of 1992 after 78 hours. I decided to stop in 2002, when pressure of life got in the way of flying, I was not doing enough hours to keep safe, well, in my estimation anyway. Here's a JPEG image of Canterbury (151456 bytes), taken from 4000 feet with a normal 50mm lens boosted by 2x lens adapter. It's a little hazy and the image has been sharpened a bit. The aircraft is on the north side of the city and you are looking about SSW. |
