Footie and airfields

[keithh]

I was going to Rotherham to watch the mighty Royals play last week so I decided to take in some fields too. I made a bit of a detour to try and log a few Tutors but when I got to Barkston Heath everything was locked away and all I saw was a C172 landing. This was a shame as on my last trip here all I saw were T67's. I moved on to Cranwell where I had better luck logging 6 Tutors but I didn't stop for long as I wanted to get to the next stop which was Headon. This is a micro strip a few miles east of Gamston and was very friendly, the only thing missed was the contents of a solo hangar, probably the based Sportcruiser. Moving on to Gamston, I logged the contents of the apron and one hangar which had a back door open. A man stood by the door allowed me to stand inside to take pix and said that if I asked in the tower they might let me on the apron if I had a hiviz. I had no more time so I just moved on to the ground where I saw a handy 1-0 win. On the way back I stopped at EMA with the intention of taking a quick look at the cargo but the road was closed by a bad accident so I had to settle for a quick look around the old hangar areas. Types against those needed
