Having the day off yesterday, and suffering from aviation withdrawal symptoms, I thought I would head out to the airport early and spend a few hours out there. Leaving home at 5.40am the weather was fine. I dropped my daughter at work and made way for the airport, unfortunately the closer I got to the airport the worse the weather got. As soon as I got there the heavens opened up and it bucketed down, apart from the occasional 15 minute breaks, the rain didn't give up for the four hours I was there.
