There was also a second Cessna 150 frame marked as F-BUMA in the rafters, same colours as the active one!
At Carcassonne the DGAC area was a no go and the one hangar accessed had just the CAP inside.

After a very windy approach to Luton on G-EZAM it was a very smooth landing indeed, good job Captain.
A few entered the log at Luton, mainly for Darren of course. Parking on the hangar line enabled us to confirm that the hangar queen G3 VP-BHR was still tucked away in Landmarks.

All in all a very pleasing trip, some great variety and as always excellent banter! The only down side to the whole trip was the excessive amount of toll roads, in all we spent around £90 on them.
However it still worked out to be a cheap getaway for four days of quality spotting. With flights, Car and Hotels etc... the whole trip cost in the region of £250 each. Not too shabby methinks!
