Alas, the BFU pilot reported that he had just started feeling sick on the way in & was by now getting a bit shaky aswell - nothing to do but put him up for the night & see how things were in the morning.

Evening was approaching fast - due to the fact that most of the day was wasted trying to sort out the problem with the original pilot. Oh well - it's still nice & calm - & there's no better place to watch the sun go down:
