Flying a small plane around the entire coastline of Britain in just a week. PLUS attempting to stand on all four extreme points of the mainland. We’re flying a Cirrus SR20 from Biggin Hill Airport around the entire mainland of Britain. A five-day mission that ends in today’s episode. Can we stand on the most Southerly point of Britain, will we get back to Brighton Pier in time. Enjoy this fun aviation adventure in the conclusion of Extreme Britain.

Typical FO lands to the right of the centerline 🤣
Committed to continue over the hump, yes except for an engine failure in your single……🤣
Loved this trip Stef – I did the same (well similar) route in 2009; only going the other way and on a motorbike 😀We also did the 4 extreme points, so it's brought back some great memories.
Can't wait for the return vid when u go to the same n.e.s.w sights on Australia!
So thankful that we got to fly along and experience this incredible journey with you. Wishing the best to both of you!❤❤
Another great video Stef! Glad to see you back at IT again! Look forward to seeing you fly EYZ into Melton again!
Congratulations !!
Thanks both for a great tour 😊
Absolutely fantastic journey lads. Loved it loved it loved it. Thanks for sharing. Well done Stefan. Look forward to you returning to pilot in command back home real soon.
It's good to see you getting back into flying Stefan. You are very fortunate to have a good friend and pilot like Philippe who can join you on these adventures.
Around Australia next
I couldn't have watched this EP in a better spot.
Pre Downloaded —– on a flight Adl -> Syd Today.
Loved it thanks

Great comeback for you Stefan. I didn't realise you studied at Plymouth – I did too, but probably a few years before you (it was a polytechnic when I was there😅).
Really enjoyed watching this mini-series. I hope you do more challenges like this.
I've REALLY enjoyed this series Stef. You two have been a fantastic team on this trip,and it's SOOOO good to see you back flying again. Good on ya!
Congrats Stef on finishing your goal/mission 🙂
Well done. And thanks for the journey.
Another great video of your travels. Some wonderful countryside you have shown us all. Thanks for sharing your journey.
Congratulations guys, really enjoyed following your journey around the U.K. mainland
Great flight! jealous of those views of Dorset. Where next?
How did you get the RNP at Lands End? I understood it to be unavailable to visiting pilots? Or did you do a 7 mile 'Visual Approach' on the Garmin with your own minimums?
Beautiful. So nice to see my hometown, albeit briefly. And I'm chuffed for you to be back flying again. I can go back to being jealous of you!
Congratulations! Join the elite club. I flew the Coastline in June in PA28 with 2 friends. My story is published in AOPA UK magazine Aug edition.
& here I am using paper straws…. 😂
What a throughly fantastic series. The first one randomly popped up on my feed and I subscribed straight away. Going to go back to your very first upload and work my way through now.
Just awesome!
Congratulations Stef and Phillipe on completing the challenge! Great videos, as usual. Wonderful to see you back where you belong, in the left hand seat!
Can you do the NESW on Australia and other countries 😊
A great achievement and excellent footage guys! Your chemistry together made for a great series to view.
Well done and I look forward to seeing your next adventure together 👌👍👏👏👏
Thank you so much for this series – inspiring in so many ways
Stefan, tell us more about your cat/cow sanctuary.😀
This series and particularly this episode just made me happy. Thank you.
That was such a lovely series to watch. The flying was great as always but really,.the highlight was you at Lizard Point talking about what the trip meant to you and seeing the joy and relief you felt at feeling like yourself again. I'm really glad things are on the up for you. 🙂
Sad that is the last in the series. I do most my flying in ES and now extremely jealous how boring my sorties are! I’m in Australia for COPA in a few weeks if anyone else is attending.
thank you guys, it was great to be part of your journey and Stefan, great you are back again as PIC
Good job I found this, shout out from Plymouth 👌
Congratulations on completing the mission Stefan! Best regards from South America.
Wheyyy Exeter mentioned, I believe you spoke to Hannah on radar
Congrats Stefan. A great series and a huge step in getting you back to EYZ as PIC.
Well done guys!
Well done Stefan & Phillippe 👍. What a cracking series of videos and really enjoyed your tour around old Blighty!! Can’t wait for the next adventure, Ireland maybe?
What a brilliant, inspiring video; I am so pleased to see your recovery coming on leaps and bounds Stefan!
I'm from Cornwall (now live in Germany), but enjoyed every single minute of you both showing off the beautiful British Isles.
The two of you have a great chemistry and should do more of these adventures & videos.
I am now extremely homesick. 😉
Great to see you healthy and flying again. And hearing you slip back into your old accent😊
How did you miss swanage bay 😮
Well done boys, what a great series….
Brilliant series, what a great challenge, and spectacular flying adventure ..
