Story

Hello from The Flying Reporter - a former BBC TV news reporter, now private pilot YouTuber from Kent, UK. On 16 March 2024, I'm went about the challenge of landing at 12 aerodromes in 12 hours while raising money for The Aerobility Charity.

On 16 March, there was just 12 hours between sunrise and sunset, and I departed at sunrise from Norwich Aerodrome in my Piper Arrow, landing back there at before official night.

At the majority of the stops, I held a fan speed-dating exercise! I had just 25 minutes to meet as many Flying Reporter followers as I could, allowing selfies, giving out signed photos and taking donations for Aerobility.
