All quiet at Luton & Dunstable

With the wife, decided to make the most of a bit of sunshine and go to Dunstable Downs, briefly stopping at Luton.
I know it’s the weekend, but Luton was a bit sparse. A lot of UK registered biz parked up, but generally thinly parked up.
If you want to knock off some UK biz there was –
2-KSFR BD700, M-AAAL G650, M-AGIK F900LX, M-DADA BD700, M-INNI L60, M-ONEY BD700, M-YNNS G650, G-CGOA C550, G-ESNA EMB550, G-FOMO BD700, G-GAAL C560, G-IPAX C560, G-LEGC E135, G-SHUI C680A, G-SMSM F2000, G-THFC E135, G-XXRS BD700.
Foreign wise – logged 16, of which the most interesting were VT-CDP BD700 and VT CPA G550 both of Poonawalla Aviation.
For the record, a shot of VT-CDP.

So, then on to Dunstable Downs. Again, a bit disappointing. There was a lot of paraglider / hanglider activity, but little on the glider side. Still, it was nice to be out.
The café and toilets are open if that helps anyone visiting. Pete.
One of the regular based gliders -
Schleicher ASK 23 G-DEVW Dunstable
One of the vintage gliders still only BGA registered.
Slingsby T30B Prefect BQP BGA1152 Dunstable
Spot the reg ! All in their protective covers.
