Menai Straits and Caernarfon Castle
After a promise of unbroken skies, initial rain and cloud was disappointing but taking off from the hotel Beaumaris, Bangor and the Menai Strait saw a brighter day in prospect. The instructions for landing at Caernarfon Airport stated that in the interest of noise abatement we should not fly above caravans at less than 1000ft! At the end of the runway was a holiday caravan park!! When questioned, the Air Traffic Controller ‘confirmed that they were not on the runway!!!
