Unfortunatley the Rockwell was locked away solid so went begging. A nice Spanish Beech was a bit of a consolation prize. But cant moan with a few hitting the book.

Hello world!

Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start blogging!

3rd March. Blue skies - No Trails.

A loveley start to the day 100% blue skies. But unfortunatley nothing is trailing at present. A couple of interesting movements

N810WP DHC8 Routed Goose bay to Rekyavik last night so may be a possible in the next day oir so.

More to follow very shortly.

March 1st. N731PT

N731PT PA31 now en route from Rekyavik to Wick. Not sure where he is heading next. Seems very quiet for eastbound delivery/ferry flights at present. Must be the real bad winds.

Afternoon update . N731PT Routed Wick to LFPN southbound via HONILEY in clear skies. Bonus!!

An update on N731PT.
The plane is going to have a new call sign. It will supposedly be YR-AND. The plane is going to be used for V.I.P. flights.

N850FS PA28 also routed south off WICK TO Ostend. C6-EVU C525 routed off Keflavik into Luton clear skies but unfortunatley way too dark for me to see :-((
