Scotland or BUST - Low and slow to BALADO

CRAZY ideas are not always a bad thing. We've been thinking of a flight that was more than just an out and return. Why not visit the Scottish Flylight PEABEE dealership at BALADO airfield. We planned a number of routes that would take into account different wind directions but ultimately Edinburgh airspace was a big hurdle to cross. Our route would take in the low level corridor up to St Michaels airfield, then up past lake Windermere, on towards Troutbeck for a night stop. This was only day one and where this video should have finished. Stay tuned for the subsequent events before we arrived at our night stop.
