DME: what have you flown so far?

I’ve been flying the Tomahawk thus far.

I don’t know which type of engine it has, I’ll check it out. It’s a LYCOMING O-320-H2AD, any good?

Runway too short and airport too small for future needs. There was no way of expanding it successfully owing to nearby late 60’s housing estates being developed. Those 3 high rise blocks of flats being an example. I used to live in the middle block as a kid.

They took the decision to move across to nearby Abbotsinch, the former wartime RAF station and latterly HMS Sanderling naval air station.

Cheers for that,

I take it the buildings near the top of the pic is Babcocks? Coming in on Rwy 28 I’ve never noticed the cart? even though I know it’s there 😮

Ah, that will be the one I travel along at least 10 times per week!

Why did they move the airfield just a short distance? Did it only have the one runway?

I’m going up flying at the weekend, I’ll get a shot of what it looks like now. I’ll try from the same point (through the overhead).

On the top right of the picture is that a Runway? Looks like it’s roughly running 23/05.

What’s there now?

Yeah, they are to replace the ATP’s.

The SAAB must not be as good a STOL a/c, compared with the Dash 8.

It would make sense to have the 340 and 2000 (commonality) but the performance issue must rule!
