On Thursday I had to fly to Hamburg to do some work at the syncrothron. I was flying Easyjet out of Gatwick and theirs is basically the last flight out of Hamburg on Friday night. I knew I would be late back, so charged the Aurora's rx lipo on Wednesday. I'm having a few issues with the gyro and fully intended to take advantage of the good weather to try and sort them out.
Anyhow, I got to the airport in good time and checked my tools in. 10 minutes later my flight's been cancelled.
So, back to the Easyjet desk to be told that I will only be able to fly back on Sunday. I managed to get a seat on BMI to Heathrow leaving at 7:30 this morning.
In the meantime I am trying to track down my tools. An hour later and it's disappeared, so I put a claim in.
Flight to Heathrow went fine, bus to Gatwick and an extra £7 on my prepaid parking. I finally got home around 11, but had to do a few things in town, so planned to go the field after lunch.
Get to the field and the local rc car club, who have a track behind the flightline, are having a race meeting. No flying
and no notification on our club's website. The day's a disaster.
On the up side, I got a call from Gatwick to say my tools have been found and i should get them next week.
