- Is there such thing as a perfect flight? Well the conditions for my final flight of official summer were fantastic!
A short 40 minute hop over to Duxford which is home to the Imperial War Museum. Duxford is Europe's largest air museum with over 300 aircraft!
Flight sharing with my friends parents Martin and Di. Martin celebrated his 70th birthday last year so this is a delayed trip.
Heading east we cross under Luton airspace, we head directly to Woburn, Henlow, and Royston, where we join the circuit downwind.
I highly recommend a flying into Duxford. The landing fee of just £18 includes free entry to the museum for all passengers. (Walk in price is normally £35 per person)
I discovered there was a problem with the coms - with readability 3, so I apologise if some of the audio is not clear.

I hope you enjoy this flight vlog. If you like this video please hit the 👍🏻 and leave me a comment.
REMEMBER... a good pilot is always learning!
Now sit back, and enjoy the flight!

Thank you for watching. Please leave me a comment.
Another awesome video Adam, Duxford is definitely one of my favourites! ✈️
Thank you George
LOVE DUXFORD😍😍😍 - you make me very jealous! Great vid as always bud 👍🏾🙌🏾
Thank you! 👍👍
Great video as always!
Thank you so much! 🙏
Really enjoy watching your videos 👍
Thank you that’s good to know! Appreciate the commment
Awesome! They look like great airfields to visit!
Thank you - Duxford is definitely worth adding to your list!
Nice video! Can’t wait to fly with you !!!!
Thank you! Yes would be great!
Nice trip, not too far from Enstone as the crow flies. Is there a lot of work involved in a trip like that? Not been to Duxford for 20 years, £18 LF and entry? Yet £35 by road or foot - defiantly one of the UKs free museums. But well worth a visit.
Thank you. Super easy flight. £18 landing fee included entry for all passengers too! (You get 2 hours!)
I am wishing the weather comes good so I can fly there. It is a long time since I last flew in (1978)!!
I think we will get some nice days again. Wow you don’t look that old!!
@@PrivatePilotFlightVlogs Thanks but yes I am that old, I got my wings in Dec 1977, with the ATC.
That’s amazing! You must have a few hours under your belt!
@@PrivatePilotFlightVlogs Not that many as I stopped flying when I joined the RAF (Ironic isn't it but I was too tall to be a pilot in the RAF, so became an aircraft engineer). In a way I kept flying but hang gliders and paragliders and the odd little bit of flying but let my PPL go so came back to flying fixed wing just a couple of years ago, with 3 Axis microlight. So I only have just over 1500hrs total PIC but if you count time as crew chief (self loading freight) then you can multiply that by a factor of over 10.
Wow that’s quite a career!
Nice one Adam 👍🏼
Thanks dude 😜
👍 😃
Thank you 👍
Thanks for a great trip to (and from!) Duxford. Looking forward to our next adventure.
Thank you!
Great vid, Adam. Duxford is a great place to visit.
Thank you JD 🙏
Its been very long since i last got up (9 months ) and i was just about to do the vfr nav flights for the first time as a part of my ppl training and was just wandering how accurate you should be with your headings(obviously try to be as accurate as possible) but if 2-3 degrees accuracy is good enough too. Many thanks and have safe flights as we gradually return ..
I’m not qualified to give advice but I think you answered you own question. Stay safe up there.
@@PrivatePilotFlightVlogs cheers
and stay safe up there too
PA38? Did my license on on of those.
PA28 - this is a 180 Archer 👍
Another awesome video Adam! Top work bud 👍🏼
Thank you - appreciate it! 🙏
Another brilliant video Adam! How do you always manage to get so lucky with the weather? :-)
Thank you! We’ve had an amazing summer I guess! Not so good now though. 😢
Private Pilot Vlogs I hope we don’t end up paying for it for the whole of winter. 😏
Me too!
Another excellent video ☺️ always interesting to see new places
Thank you so much really appreciate it 🙏
Nice vid as always! 👍🏻 I really need to fly to the UK one day. Looks like there are a lot of nice airports over there! 😎
Thank you! Likewise!! One for 2021 now! Double date??
@@PrivatePilotFlightVlogs Yeah, who knows? Or somewhere this winter, when there's a stable high pressure system over the whole of Europe?
I had planned a trip to Amsdterdam with a friend so perhaps that may be possible at some point!
@@PrivatePilotFlightVlogs Yes! Drachten Airport (EHDR) is just an hour flight away from Schiphol. If you come to EHAM, come over to Drachten too, for a coffee! 👍🏻
Adam , i havent heard anything from you in a while .I think you said that had a operation and you need to contact an AME fo fly again. Is the operation done ? How are you doing in general.? And have you flown from enstone anytime? I visited it just today but didnt fly as of the 500 ft AGL cloud base .
I hope you are well..
Simon.
Hey Simon thanks for the message. Yes I’m good thank you. I’ve flown a few hours over the summer, but just had a new baby so grounded atm! Hope to bk this month at some point. Hope you are well and keeping safe. 👍👍
@@PrivatePilotFlightVlogsCongratulations! I wouldnt know how much work a child /children are but i can imagine sleep is minimal at the moment. Good to hear you flew a bit over the summer ...Out of enstone still or has your base changed ? . The pandemic has disrupted the flow of all of the aviation industry and it is hard for private pilots like us to get back into the swing of things again ! Although from my point of view we can ne grateful that internally in the Uk lockdown measures have come to minimal amounts
.
I am looking forwars to you next video .
Good luck with the family too.
Thank you.
I was furloughed for 18 months too so finaces have been super tight too.
I’ve got loads of content in need to edit, just need some time!
I’m still at Enstone.
@@PrivatePilotFlightVlogs Oh good luck Adam . You have got this i am sure , for ppl it is important to get priorities straight with school for me and work for yourself. But i am very sure you are doing so and are fully aware .
Take it easy ok
👍👍👍
Thank you. Catch you soon. 🤘
Nice one Adam. I was really disappointed that I was unable to meet you there. It was a great day to fly but these things happen!. Enjoyed the trip with you though, through the power of the internet. Thanks for taking the time to edit and for uploading. What did you like best there?
Another time Tim. As you know you need a full day there really. Highlight for me was finding an Airspeed Oxford, as my Grandad was working on them during the war, and I have a photo of him in it. Hoping to recreate the photo one day!
Great video! 👍🏻
Thank you!
Looking forward to watching!
Thank you! Let me know what you think! 🤪
Another great video Adam. It's been a while since my last trip to Duxford but it is definitely on my long list of favourite airfields.
I actually watched your video in prep for this trip, so thank you! Hope you and family are well.
I'm glad the video was of use!
Absolutely always are!
Aww happy days another class video to watch I shall wait impatiently lol
Thank yoy hope you like this one! 🙏
