Piper Arrow coming to Go Fly Oxford

Go Fly Oxford is soon to add a Piper PA28-RT to its training fleet to join the Cessna 150 and Piper PA38 at Hinton Airfield, Northamptonshire. More details to come soon…

Nothing but crosswind

So yesterday was eventful, 14Kts gusting 22Kts, which just so happened to be straight across the runway. We do have a grass runway which would of been much better suited but was waterlogged from the last few weeks weather.

We had more air experience flights booked in but some were cancelled due to the forecast. So six flights split between Mos (my CFI) and myself, I had drawn the short straw and was stuck in the PA38-112 aka ‘The Traumahawk’. I will write a post on my views of the Traumahawk at some point, and unlike most it will not be completely negative.
