WEEK 9
======
Same proceedure, with one decent length flight to challenge map reading. Also a bit of head scratching to cope
with controlled airspace. Don't forget to use the correct Mesh!

CAPESTON FARM   N51 44.64  W5 5.91  Altitude 185' AMSL
=============== 2.7 miles WNW of Milford Haven and just beyond the Amoco Refinery, which you are not permitted to overfly.

RUNWAYS
-------------
WNW and ESE (450 metres)
Slopes down from the mid point towards NW, especially the last 150 metres at the NW end.

CIRCUITS
-----------
All circuits LH at 1000' QNH.
Avoid villages, farms and nursing home.

WINDSOCK
--------------
On the south side of the strip.


BREIDDEN  N52 42.19  W3 5.61  Altitude 200' AMSL
========

LOCATION
-------------
4 miles NNE of Welshpool.
Disused railway line runs N/S along the West side and the River Severn runs across the Southern edge of the field.

RUNWAYS
--------------
01 / 19  (500 metres)
Footpath crosses the end of 01

WINDSOCKS
----------------
On the East side of the strip.

CIRCUITS
------------
Both to the East. LH for 19 and RH for 01.


SEALAND   N53 13.13  W3 0.69  Altitude 19' AMSL
=======
Present in both FS9 and FSX versions but the newer version is the better of the two. No published airfield data

available.

LOCATION
-------------
WSW of the long straight section of the River Dee, and due W of the Stanlow Refinery. Follow the Dee, from the
estuary, and you can't miss it.

RUNWAYS
-------------
05 / 23  09 / 27 Long

WINDSOCK
--------------
South of Rwy 23

CIRCUITS
------------
800' To the South only, to avoid the Capenhurst restricted area, immediately to the North North East of the field.

Hope you survive the experience, though all are much easier to land at than some previous destinations.
