NOTES: We have Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide', to thank for pointing out this short lived location. He looked into the background and found that Hummingbird Microlight Flight Training Ltd was registered in 1999. He also discovered that the aircraft being operated, the Mainair Blade G-BYLK, was involved in a tragic accident in 2002. The student pilot being killed, the instructor seriously injured, and the aircraft being written off.
