A day at Headcorn

There can be few better ways to spend a warm summer day than watching the comings and goings at an airfield, and few are better than Headcorn.

It is always good to see a twin at the airfield, and i hadn’t been there long when G-LIZZ called in en route to Le Touquet:-

Not long after, two visitors from Switzerland arrived. First up was RV-7 HB-YLM:-

Lovers of classic aircraft were well looked after with a couple of Chipmunks and visiting Tiger Moths. Miles Messenger G-AJOE particularly caught my eye:-

Further variety was provided by a number of microlights, including G-KICK:-

And since I started with G-LIZZ, I will end with G-LZZY:-
