Thread: Hi from turkey !!

Just thought I'd say hi to you all from turkey !!

Flight was at 7am yesterday morning, flew on a 737, arrived at dalaman airport at around 11am, then had a 2 hour bus journey .. Hated that.

Anyway, it's fab weather here at the moment, scorching sun, and just sitting up on the balcony

Anyway, speak soon

Whats the weather like in the wonderful UK ?

Its cloudy here sitting at my desk

Not long got back from Turkey myself.
2 Weeks in Kalkan. Absolute paradise, but too hot for heli flying

Yeah rig helinut, way to hot for flying, it's about 38 degrees here, I think the heli would melt mid flight

Nah....it's amazing the heat that they can take.....took my 600 & Mini T out this weekend just gone and it was 44 degrees - but with humidity factored in the heat index was actually more like 50/51 degrees. Both heli's performed great - just need to allow reasonable gaps between flights!

Now, the pilot melting......that's another story....!
