My Father in law is the sort of man that will not use new things for fear of ruining them and prefers to wear old stuff out first. This always causes a problem regarding choosing birthday presents and his 80th birthday was no different.
The decision was taken to give him something that he had to use/experience and what better than a sightseeing tour in a light aircraft. My boss, who has his own aerobatic aircraft and also has access to Tønsberg Flight clubs 2Cessnaa 172's, very kindlyagreedd to be our pilot.
We took off into a deal ofturbulencee on a bright sunny Saturday morning. Our one hour trip took us over Haugtuft, my in-laws chalet and onward towards Drøbak. On the return journey I took the controls, handing back over shortly before a quick touch and go followed by a textbook, one wheeled, cross wind landing.

What an amazing photo of your estate! So that's what it looks like without 3 feet of snow...
Aye, Very pleased with that photo. The ride was quite bumpy so it was a bit of hit and miss with the camera.
Hey Andrew,
Now you have a very good photo of your land (better than from sattelite). You can use it as an Introduction picture in your Blog page.
