Our next trip after Donauwörth was to Farley Farm for annual maintenance. I flew down in the left seat, must have all of 5 hours logged on type now! The idea was that I would go back down and help out with some of the work but when I called Mike a few weeks latter, somewhat surprised, G-EJBI was ready to be collected. Well not quite, she would not start. It was off with the old ‘lightweight’ starter motor and a new ‘heavy’ one fitted. I will discuss G-EJBI’s new found reluctance to start in a latter post. Here is a picture of D-EBLI which has been at the farm for a few years now, would love to see her back in the skies.
