Well what a fun afternoon i have had been flying with my old boss who is now retired as he has made alot of money from the company he owend so he's been busy learning how to fly and bought himself a little plane. Been trying to get out for months but weather has not been good enough or he's been away. Finally got out today was amazing i actually flew the plane for a good ten mins not as easy as it seems!



Getting ready and doing checks

Youd have to do a quite a bit of route planning for fuel and where you can fly etc.. he can't currently do that at the moment as he's restricted to 3500feet. He's currently doing some training that will alow him to fly higher thefore he can travel where ever he wants.

My mates learning to fly hes at the stage where you have to learn all about weather he has books about 3 inches thick.
Apparently once you get your head round it the practical side isn't so bad it's all the other stuff thats bad.
