Redhill

Wednesday 11th May was meant to be a flight over to Manston Kent with my instructor Owen, but due to the weather forecast for Shoreham this was cancelled with moderate rain showers in the area. However there was a fantastic opportunity given to me to fly with my instructor a Senica aircraft, G-BOJK.

This aircraft needed to be taken up to the hanger at Redhill aerodrome (EGKR)

and this presented a great opportunity to taste a Multi engine aircraft.

The flight was 15 minutes but with fuelling and power checks this worked out to be 45. The flight takes you north of Shoreham and around the Gatwick ATZ via Forest Row and Godstone before landing on runway 26R (on this day).

There was a lot to take in but it was a taster of what’s to come and this was also my first of many flights to Redhill.
