The DG arrives!

At 18:00 we pulled into the airfield after a good second day travelling without any problems. Having been away for two years the airfield has undergone some changes. The entrance now has a series of flag poles flying various countries flags, our Union Jack was looking particularily shabby as a vertcal section was missing leaving a tatty frayed edge. Behind the flag poles, the entrance to the airfield has been fenced together with a sturdy iron gate finished in white. Behind the fence, a number of very smart hangars have been built including a linear style hangar. We were followed in closely by G and Annie, David Williams and his co-pilot Simon, Mark Benham and Julian Richardson also arrived tonight. At least we have a quorum for the rigging party in the morning! A short, sharp thunderstorm developed over the airfield while we dined in the newly refurbished 'Janus' restaurant. The evening quickly cleared into a very pleasant warm but humid atmosphere.
