The plan was simple: head down to Bolt Head for a weekend tour of farmstrips across Devon and Cornwall. The weather, didn\u2019t play ball. Low cloud over the coast an Bolt head. so the group diverted inland and made Dunkeswell the base instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not as good as the welcome and planned BBQ that Alice had arranged for us at Bolt Head, but Dunkeswell has plenty of space for visiting aircraft, a friendly welcome, and a decent caf\u00e9 for waiting out the weather. By evening , everyone was pitched up beside their aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The evening was all about swapping stories, comparing routes, and making plans for the next day. Some had a longer evening than others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
