Again, nothing to do with railways. I have revived my aeroplane with X-plane 11. Here is the Cessna 172 at EGNM, Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA), aka Yeadon Aerodrome. My nickname "Flying Porker" stems from this; I liked to fly, and used to be a bit of a porker at 96 kg. Don't ask me what that is in stones! It's rather a lot. I did have fantasies of learning to fly for real in my retirement, but it costs a fortune. And now my stroke. I don't drive as my right foot won't operate the accelerator or brake safely. There is no way I would get a Licence. In the meantime, I shall continue to train my herd of pigs to take off and land on Runway 32 at Yeadon... Back to the trains soon...
