PORT HAVERIGG: Temporary seaplane diversion
Note: Picture by the author. A friendly seagull flew past to illustrate just how easy flying is - piece of cake.
NOTES: Our unexpected bad weather diversion arrival here, (the first visit by a seaplane), in 2003 with G-DRAM on our, (Jim Roland and I), Loch Earn to Swanage flying project, (see FLYER magazine issue November 2003), resulted in further permission to land here in future. In fact the owner of the site was so delighted by our visit he told us other seaplane pilots would now be welcome too - with prior permission of course.
The site consists of a large artificial lake contained within a long and large curving sea wall originally built to keep the sea out to protect mining activity.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
