During a spirited drive this afternoon I accidently hit a speedbump at 130mph. I was shocked to find that during the several hundred metre flight there was no air traffic control facility on the radio. Can you upgrade the radio to one that has more frequencies?

130?!!! I take it you're still running-in the engine. Speed bumps should be taken at 150+, this will allow you to enter commercial airspace. ATC will then contact you with landing instructions....make sure you wheels are down!

Tried to get a video done last night but the I was concentrating so much on filming that I had a really hard landing- I spent 3 hours in casualty having a video camera extracted from my left nostril.

Next bright idea?
