Congratulations! I started PPL lessons late last year and am loving it. The other guys are right - your first solo definitely stays with you forever! |

It's odd seeing someone live a dream I'd like to. Sadly, as I'm off to University do live another dream (a degree, hopfully followed by a career, in Journalism) , I can't really afford flying lessons. And before anyone points out that I could have got my pilot's licence for what my watch cost, I know. But at least I'll have the watch of aviators on my wrist when I do eventually get off the ground! PS. If any instructors want to teach me to fly for cheap in return for a magazine article I'll be keen to talk. Can't hurt to ask! |
