One of FlyBe's DHC-8-400s ('Q400'). There were loads of these, you could go up to EGHI and see them any time of day. They were ubiquitous and boring, but are now history. This airframe ended its days in Nigeria, now listed as 'stored'.

I flew one of these to Leeds/Bradford back in the day. A very quick flight. They were nice. Very modern interior, like a jet. Great views due to the high wing and low cruise altitude.

EGHI had loads of General Aviation movements. This is a Turbo Arrow that despite being in the UK full time has an American Registration.

@sullybiker
Where did you learn to fly? Air force or other place?

@posrev I miss that airport. A nice way to spend a sunny afternoon.

@posrev Sadly not! That was close to where my old man lived and before i had a car you could get the odd affordable fare up there.
