A very cold start to Tuesday, but the frost will clear, to give anotherdry, mainly sunny. Day. Top temperatures 6 to 9 C., but feeling cold at times, in a light to moderate southeasterly breeze.
               

Looking good... 8)

Thanks Paul... Your pics are very good too  :goodjob: ... Seems you were just down the road from myself and squad 701.... We will have to get baseball caps or flags made so that we can spot each other as well as the aircraft.... :LOL
