I invariably ended up missing at least one gate... better than crashing of course, but not good enough to stop trying This time I managed to stay in the air for long enough to actually return to EGLC for more fuel!

I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to fly the approach quite this low :)

Refueling before returning to the runway Apologies to Amerrir for the brief runway incursion... after so many takeoffs in a row you tend to get a bit careless

My 25th attempt seemed quite good as well, I may have even managed to clock a time somewhere below 2 minutes! Returning to London City Airport again
