Fernando's Logbook

Send us a text
In this episode, we fly to Exeter, Devon, to visit Zena, a donkey Fernando adopted a year ago and has never once visited. 
This episode is part travel guide, part quiet question on the things we care about from a distance. 
We explore the Regency seaside town of Sidmouth, walk the Jurassic Coast, and visit the Donkey Sanctuary, one of the largest equine welfare charities in the world and one of the best free family days out in the south of England.

Change is in the air! I’m recording this quick update from my home base at Duxford Airfield to share some news and updates about the podcast.

To keep things simple and honest, I’ve decided to bring everything I do, from aviation talk to travel adventures, under one single roof: Fernando’s Logbook. This means The Pilot's Logbook and Travel Plans are officially merging into one magazine-style show.

Welcome back to The Pilot’s Logbook - a podcast companion for private pilots in the UK and Europe.
In this episode, Luke Dale explains why cleaning your aeroplane is a vital maintenance task, shares the best techniques, the products that actually work (and the ones that don’t), and why the CAA is starting to regulate this industry.
He's the man to teach us all about cleaning our aircraft.
