Flying in Devon, UK

Flying Egg in Devon, Swimbridge
Does no one in Devon fly? Or is it that they do not fly low level? Airbox 250 maps stop at Axminster and thereafter have a vaguely dismissive green colour - flying be not done here where the non-wings live, oh ah - ! I tried to get a Map7 (as it is called) at Goodwood but they didn't have one. So, I thought, well I'll get one in Exeter, since we are going there for fuel, they are bound to have one.
No!
But although they did not have an uptodate one, they did have a 2011 one, and gave it to me for free. So, thanks, that was very kind and even though Plymouth no longer has an airport... it was very useful.

Great place to fly Devon. I can't imagine why everyone isn't flying there - it was brilliant, uncrowded and absolutely beautiful. And nice place to practice sloping ground landings for real. This picture shows the least sloping part of the whole local area!
