There's high cockpit workload on this short flight, as I negotiate a crossing over the top of one of the busiest single-runway airports in the world.

I make inspirational videos about my flying adventures around the UK and Europe. I have a dream too, to one day fly my PA28 across the atlantic to the USA. Subscribe to my channel for more inspirational flying vlogs and honest post-flight debrief videos.

I'm most grateful for the guidance and support of Aero Anglia - A light aircraft maintenance organisation at Elmsett in Suffolk. The nicest and thorough aircraft engineers I've come across.

I've recently partnered with Aerobytes to promote their services to commercial aviation. Aerobytes is fanatical about flight safety - a passion close to my heart. Aerobytes provide Flight Data Monitoring services to the airlines.

AOPA has supported me for many, many months now. They work so hard to promote our interests as private pilots and I'm happy to endorse AOPA UK's mission to secure our freedom to fly. Get a 25% discount on your AOPA UK membership.

For all my licence revalidations, tests, and flight training I turn to the team at Anglian Flight Centres. It's a friendly flight training organisation (ATO) based at Earls Colne in Essex. With its hard and grass runways and open airspace, it's a great place to learn to fly.

Before CloudbaseGA, my aircraft log books were a work of fiction. Now that I have one of their automatic flight loggers fitted, all my trips are recorded automatically and updated to a cloud server. It's a great solution for flying schools, clubs or aircraft shares.

If you should ever need your engine overhauled, require a shock load inspection, or general advice about the operation of your engine, contact Norvic Aero Engines. I only partner with companies who treat their customers fairly and offer good service. I am thrilled to be working with Norvic and I am delighted to be able to endorse their services.

Before I had my propeller dynamically balanced by Proptech, I used to experience quite a lot of vibration in the cruise. Proptech came to my airfield with their equipment and after a short time they'd tuned-up my prop so that the cruise is silky smooth (turbulence permitting!)

I keep my aeroplane clean and dry in-between flights by using a custom-made cover from Vertigo Covers. The Hampshire-based company prides itself on excellent customer service, an attention to detail, modern designs and materials and covers that are lightweight and affordable.
