Flying with Caledonian Chipmunks
« on: Thursday January 04, 2007, 11:50:50 UTC »
Are your Chipmunks available for hire? I have about 80 hours P1 in Chipmunks, mostly in the late lamented G-BBRV. It goes without saying that I would welcome a check ride. It's a long time since I've been in a Chipmunk north of the border. I was an ATC cadet at the time (September 1975), and the place was RAF Machrihanish.

It's good to know that you like to fill both cockpits. I spent many happy hours flying family and friends over the Peak District when G-BBRV was based at Sheffield City Airport. Incredibly, barely a decade after it was constructed, the runway at Sheffield is due to be dug up and replaced by industrial units. Such a shame, as it could have been transformed into a superb facility for the GA community.
