Entry 7 of 16 | show all | print this entry

So our return flight to London today got cancelled and then another one came up and gave us 4 hours to get from London city to Heathrow to pick up BBJ to Nice. Perfect?

So we fly a Citation Bravo from le Bourget to London city. Awesome craft, great crew, landing into London city banking over the end of the Ashes Cricket and watching all the flashes go. First rate! Adrien picks us up at City and we scoot to FUlham to pick up a camera and 3 pizza's to take on board the BBJ and help down with Champagne.

Right we get to Heathrow in fine time. "errr, your BBJ is positioned in Luton". So we speed at 150mph, courtesy of Adrien, to Luton and make it in time. We-re all happy and this craft is huge and standing just 100m away. BUT, failure of communication> Nick can fly but Fleety and I can/t, french immigration rules because BBJ is an American craft. So we sit in the lounge and watch BBJ pull out and tuck into cold pizza... you know what though? We are just sitting in front of about 7 net jets crafts leaving from Luton tomorrow morning> our choices> Madrid, Gibraltar, Eindhoven, Berlin, Munster, Shannon...wait for it> MOSCOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! we're just waiting for news on visa needs etc. It could be AWESOME...it could be awesome.... watch this space. Thus far we-re told visa-s "shouldn-t be a problem".
