2 days to go


Saturday...to the Festival of Speed at Goodwood, by car! Great day with good weather amazing cars and superb hospitality. Fortunate to meet up with Stirling Moss and his wife Suzie remembering times together in Israel, and then with Murray Walker who reminded us of the Camels in Jordan!!
On Sunday we transfer 'Charlie' to Sowley ready for the 'off' on Monday!!

Getting ready





Friday 11th July 2008




After some three months of planning, the Langley Video helicopter crew, David Chisnall, pilot, Alison Lewis, navigator and Colin Lewis, logistics, are almost ready to fly anti-clockwise around the UK following the coast wherever possible. The adventure was inspired by the BBC programme COAST and the subsequent books that supported it and given David's ownership of a Bell Long Ranger helicopter G-ODCC, the possibility of achieving a circumnavigation in six days with attractive overnight accomodation is possible if this unpredictable summer gives us some help.
