Five
days, 1.000 miles, a few islands and a great bliss
The front is
moving north westwards, so we cross the Channel to Cherbourg in a clear
sky, and then head to Deauville. From the current weather conditions in
Deauville (500m visibility, rain, etc.) the front is sitting just on the
airfield. It's better in Caen which has just been washed by the front,
leaving 2000ft ceiling with scattered CB and high visibility. We'll head
into Caen and then try Bernay, to the south west.
We are flying into the front, and a miracle happens : a hole opens in the
dark and dense curtain, like a tunnel. We cross the front out of the clouds
at 2000ft, high speed (30kt tailwind) and some rain on the wings... and
we are propulsed into the blue !
