| A 50th Birthday present from the Anderssons |
 |
| I chose Shobdon Airfield - as this whole area of Herefordshire I know well, have run up most of the hills and worked close by for 4 years |
 |
| RFTM - waiting for the engineering checks - note the test equipment "1965 or later United States Quarter-Dollar Coin" |
 |
| Were away - its a bit windy and I am not going to get my hands on the controls until we are a lot higher up |
 |
| Titterstone Clee Hill |
 |
| Heading for the Kraftbury factory at Marlbrook |
 |
| There is is - I worked here from 1986 to 1990 |
 |
| Its a Sunday - so only the operating shift in - and there is that new evaporator - the model it is replacing is my age. |
 |
| Up the A49 - the Leominster Bypass was not there when I started work |
 |
| Clent Hills on the horizon - better weather than Thursday |
 |
| Bircher Common - a lovely place to live (if you can afford in) - I spend evenings mapping here in 1989/90 |
 |
| Nearly done - there is Shobdon Airfield |
 |
| Straight lines - public right of way, curved lines - big boom on the crop sprayer |
 |
| To stop the rotors - pull the brake handle |
 |
| Don't even attempt to fly passenger one of these if you weigh more than 16 stone/100kg/220lb |
 |
| The flight was with Tiger Helicopters |
