| The
helos can fly with lower ceilings... and into Tresco, which gives them
a definite hedge |
|
 |
| From
the tower where our travel adjustments require some time & help, I
go for the panoramic view. Here the 15 threshold where we landed |
|
 |
| Charlie
Mike on the grass apron. The local aircraft belong to the other side of
the fields (if you want to see a Jodel on rails, look
here) |
|
 |
| Now
what is that thing without wings doing on the central (and only) taxiway
? |
|
 |
| Down
3.3% onto Runway 33 |
|
 |
| Runway
09/27 starts as a paved runway with a 4.3% slope |
|
 |
| and
ends as a grass runway with a 5% slope. Now you start to understand what
hump-backed means ! |
|
 |
| Thanks
to a friend who briefed us on the forecast from France and the kind help
of the controller, we are all set to fly tomorrow to the Irish Republic.
Here comes a sunset. |
|
 |
| I
fall out of bed around six, just in time to see the sun rise on Hugh Town |
|
 |
| The
clouds left over by the night will be soon blown away to the east |
|
 |
| Tranquility
in Pelistry Bay |
|
 |
| It
is raining over to the east |
|
 |
| At
low tide you can walk to Toll's Island but the eddies make it clear you
are not going to make it later in the day |
|
 |
| Here
comes the sun, and I still can see the tower and our aircraft ! |
|
 |
| Around
Port Hellick Point, on the west side, some spectacular rocks |
|
