With poor winter weather conditions dominating the month, Eve and I grab any opportunity we can to fly. We drop into Goodwood Aerodrome to visit their amazing cafe for brunch.
We were fortunate enough to be greeted by lots of pilots who watch the channel. Eve and I finally get to meet up with the ATC operator who offered me sanctuary last year when it looked like the weather might ground me on a flight to Kent (see previous video).
Join us on this little winter adventure!

Hello Geoff. Just wanted to thank you for including the bit at the start of your video regarding my first solo flight. I don’t think the plane you highlighted is actually me, but no matter. I must just have disappeared behind the tower by that point. Anyway, it was nice hearing a voice I recognised while flying the circuit and lovely talking to you in the cafe afterwards. Thanks again. David.

🤦🏻‍♂️ I’m totally gutted David, I had such an amazing flight to Goodwood & I was sooo upset that I’d lost the footage 😭 🥳🎈 CONGRATULATIONS on you first solo anyway and it was a pleasure to meet you 👍🏼

Another great video. I was flying out over Hayling Island and then East past Bognor Regis yesterday. It was very cold but at least I had the cabin heater going. I really love your videos as everything is nice and relaxed and it's a pleasurable ride-along.

Thanks David, I’m glad you enjoy the channel, having people tune in really does make the effort worthwhile! 😊👍🏼 What beautiful conditions yesterday!!! 😮😎 Looks like a similar day today, I hope you are able to take advantage of it again before the mucky wet stuff moves back in 😔 Sadly I’m having to work today otherwise I’d be up in the sky again! God bless cabin heaters!!!!

Super video of your flight from Goodwood to Spire View, really enjoyed seeing the sights around the Solent. I see you met Richard at Goodwood, what a smashing fellow he is. And Rob from the tower at Gwd, top FISO. Thanks for mentioning the chap who did his first solo in the Sportair C42 G CKYL. He made a great job of it. I was watching him from the tower I'm his instructor. Top day for all involved. He mentioned that he had met you in the restaurant area. Catch up next time we are both at Goodwood.

As you know, your first solo flight is one of the most memorable events of your life & I was so disappointed that I messed up the audio on my flight to Goodwood or I would have been able to catch more of your student’s first flight 🤦🏻‍♂️ Following him in I thought he did a fantastic approach… stable, predictable & good path 👏🏼 You have every reason to be proud 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Hopefully we will get the opportunity to meet the next time we’re at Goodwood 🤞🏼 We had a very nice welcome which made the visit that much more special 🥳

@@FlyingDarkLord I don't think he was too phased by anything, all looked fine from the tower. Earlier in the day whilst dual we had 6 in the Goodwood cct so he had plenty of practice watching for traffic. I used to fly a Robin registration G VECG so whenever I hear a "Charlie Golf" it gets my attention ! I currently instruct on another Robin 2160i as well, G PSFG, foxtrot golf.

Thanks for watching my friend! 😊👍🏼 It’s incredibly flattering to have people watch my videos & also respond so positively to me when they see me at airfields. The aviation community is amazing! It’s strange as I never feel that my videos are that special & I always feel everyone else’s videos are better 😮 So I think we probably judge ourselves too harshly, as I think your videos are awesome! I think the reason the videos take so long to produce is because we spend so much time thinking about how to make them suitable for viewing! 😄👍🏼

Another beautiful videos from the Lord and Lady Dark….. What a stunning setting to fly in ….. ( green with envy this end, sir….) Nice for you to be able to meet the “Dark Lord Saviour “ from Goodwood ATC… 👍….. I noticed you sent the car on the track into a right spin as you approached the hold at 32…… …. I guess being in the presence of an aviation ’Legend’ like the Dark Lord was enough to break his concentration ..!!!….😜 This time of year can offer such great vistas for we aviators … ( not totally sure about the gremlins in the final shot though !!!😱🤣…. Keep’em coming, sir…. Captain Ray 👨‍✈️

😂😂😂 Thanks Captain 🫡 I’d definitely recommend a visit to Goodwood, it’s proper posh there! It’s a bit surreal with the race track & Manor House, but a wonderful spectacle 👍🏼 There have been some beautiful clear & calm days, you’re right! Assuming we can take advantage of them 😊 There’s a reason why you should never leave your cameras unattended 😂 Thanks for watching sir!
