A quick flight with my neighbour in RVBP! It was only fair as he had to watch be build it next door for 4 years!

I can’t think of anything better to do on a Sunday afternoon with something you built in your shed…

I’ve been persuaded that my recent activity may be of interest to some so here goes! I started building a slow build Van’s RV-7 in 2018. It first flew in July 2023 and it is becoming a big part of our lives. We go EVERYWHERE in it! I’ll start documenting adventures on here!

[Ben Polwin @bpolwin]

It was a privilege to be a small part of @JonHuntTV’s challenge in the RV-7 that I built in my garage. So glad we got some useable footage! We got some unexpected air time too! All for @Aerobility charity. #theflyingreporter #RVBP

It's almost unbelievable we pulled this off, given the weather, the soft/wet grass runways and the punishing schedule. See the challenges we faced during the 12 hour meet-up marathon and just look at how much money you helped me raise for @Aerobility https://t.co/0XIz6KePhZ

@almurray @engineshed Epic evening thank-you!!!

[Ben Polwin @bpolwin]

...I am very proud of my Tornado years on IX(B) Sqn, I met and flew with some fantastic people and made friends and connections I will have for life. Luckily, I don’t look like a 12 year old boy anymore, more of a teenager now. 😀

[Ben Polwin @bpolwin]

It’s sad to see the Tornado go, it has given so much. I have so many fond memories (and some not so fond!) in my short 4 years flying the jet. It was a while ago now and I have flown a few different jets since but I do miss it....

Have fun and stay safe!

[Ben Polwin @bpolwin]

It was a real privilege to be part of this

RAF Typhoons have taken part in the #QatarNationalDay fly past in the Nation's capital, Doha.

The aircraft based at @RAFCGY flew as guests of the Qatar Amiri Air Force alongside the @Armee_de_lair and @usairforce aircraft in the multinational display.

Today I unexpectedly bumped into the aircraft I learnt to fly 18 years ago @LAATurweston @SywellAerodrome in a smart new paint job! @PlesseyFlying #LAARally2018

[Ben Polwin @bpolwin]

@Arthurvw1986 My wife and I love it! We are both pilots but had forgotten just how much we loved that sort of flying. It’s impressive to see you master a ‘busy’ rudder aircraft with just your hands! #skills

[Ben Polwin @bpolwin]

First post in a while from me! If you haven’t already, @Arthurvw1986 #flyingacrossbritain on channel 4 is well worth a watch. It’s exactly why I got into flying! GA flying is just as fun!
