Flying through

Exam time

Been doing a few LPCs recently in the H300 - these are yearly checks which have to be done on each type of helicopter a person flies.
This one was a private helistrip which was once part of Denham Airfield. The owner has built this nice little pad to get the H300 in and out of the hangar. Quite testing to land on, but we did bettter than the last person. When we picked it up it was nearly falling off the back of the pad!

He passed his test, but we did have a bit of a problem with the flight plan that you are supposed to file for any airfield within the Restricted Zone. Neither of us realised that you need to become an approved person before you can file a flight plan.

Instead we did the test within the Denham Local area - which was fine and used Airbox Aero on my ipad to make sure we did not go outside the specified area.
