Chipmunk flight from Farnborough to Popham

Just thought I’d share some photos I took a few days ago of a great little flight I did in my brothers old Chipmunk. I’ve mentioned on this forum a few times my older brother is a captain and senior examiner on the Boing 787 for Virgin Atlantic. He also has a part share in an old RAF Chipmunk which he flies out of Farnborough airport.

I was down visiting him so we decided to take it for a little flight to Popham airfield a short distance away and we fitted in some aerobatics on the way.

It was great fun, especially seeing all the other planes landing and flying around at Popham. I’ve done the flight a few times in the sim so I was pretty familiar with it all.

Some aerobatic selfies.



us landing at Popham.







Loved seeing all the different privately owned planes at Popham. If FS2024 has GA aircraft for live traffic at little airfields like Popham that’ll be amazing.
