H369/500 training two Kenyans day two

GCCUO at Goodwood airfield
Nice morning doing 360 autos, low level flying, circuits etc.

In the afternoon Tomas Sorenson arrived to join Al Llewelyn and me. His helicopter is being painted at Edmundson at Thruxton so we thought we would fly over there and see how it was looking. In my typically hopeless way I just assumed they would be there - no need to call.
Nice flight over there, through Solent CTA and Boscombe Down. Land at Heli north and taxy to the heli parking area.
However, I should have called. As we walked over it was clear there were no dogs outside the painting hangar... no dogs usually means no owners... heigh ho. No owners!
Silly old me. We will visit again tomorrow!

This beautifully painted Gazelle was next to us at Goodwood.

Big thanks to the guys at Goodwood for pushing the 500 in and out of the hangar. It is a heavy machine!
