 Duchess of Brittany
On 3 September 1995 I (with other members of the Guernsey Society of Aviation Enthusiasts) was lucky enough to take a pleasure flight in G-AORG de Havilland DH.114 Heron, taking off on Guernsey's runway 27 with a left turn to take us along the south coast of the island followed by two further left turns to take us onto finals back to 27 (I'd made a flight in the same aircraft a few years earlier in 1992 but that time we took a right turn off 27 & routed up the west coast & down the east).
