    Hello. The video is very inspiring. I have been flying myself for about 12 years, but have not yet crossed the national borders. I find the flights to the Mediterranean very exciting. Do you have any other flights planned? Where do you get all the information for the other countries? Should you ever be looking for a wingman (my wife and me), please feel free to contact me.

    Hi, just found your channel by chance and have to say I really enjoyed the vid. What an experience to share with us all. When you landed in Massa, was it at Sarzana or Massa Cinquale? My parents live close by so would love to plan a trip there one day in the future once I've got my licence and some experience. Out of interest, how long does it take from your home field to Massa? Thanks again and shall watch your other vids. Regards.

    • @v1flight736
      @v1flight736 4 года назад

      Hi Taxi, it was Massa Cinquale, not sure how long it took us but basically it’s a good couple of days, day from England across France, then France to Massa.. three days if you go through the Alps, it needs to be savoured 😉

    Superb video again, we (my wife and me) have been thinking you'd not done it this year, glad to see we were wrong. I first noticed your videos a couple of years ago and it inspired me to take up the sport, I kid you not! We have an intention of following in your footsteps as soon as I pass my GST. You're also probably responsible for the purchase of the new Skyranger (2nd one now), so thanks for the massive hole in my finances :-) A quick question, given that you are travelling for some distance with limited luggage and weight. What do you take with you for this sort of trip and how long did it last? Survival suits? Tents? Oxygen for the alps? Hope to see you in the sky Garry

    • @v1flight736
      @v1flight736 4 года назад

      Garry that’s absolutely fantastic to hear and pretty much the most significant reason for us sharing our adventures!! 👌 I’ve spent all day flying a Skyranger and it’s an aircraft that will look after you well and would be capable of retracing all our footsteps when you feel the need to head off on adventures of your own! Take a tent, lightweight sleeping bags, a couple of life jackets, PLB and your all set. For crossings over 40 miles or so consider a survival suit but it will come at a weight penalty and hamper evacuation in case of a ditching. I choose not to use one for this reason.
