Jamie's 40th Birthday Flight

Last updated: 1 October 2012

Well, what a great day we had a Shoreham Airport on Sunday 30 September
for Jamie’s 40th birthday present flight. Not much sun, quite windy but no rain.  

Dick and Rick were given special permission by Flying Officer Jamie Conran-Smith to accompany him in the four-seater aircraft.
What a privilege!

Here are a few pictures of the event. Click on them to enlarge.
