Come on, Nurse! Here we all were hoping to read about your experiences flying with an instructor......are you actually going to do it, or is it all still about installing cameras? Come on, lad, inspect the aircraft, walk all around it, make sure to let us know if you notice anything that isn't right....with particular attention to control surfaces.....do you know what they are and what they control?
Flying from time to time in the US, and finding that the aircraft itself looked like it needed some serious maintenance, I have changed my mind about flying that Cessna over Chesapeake Bay. Have . you thought about where you are planning to do your flying? Review the charts, if your instructor had a heart attack, what would you do to save the situation? Would you be able to navigate? or radio for assistance..... Actually, for that matter, are you physically fit to fly? Before solo, an aviation medical may be a good idea. After all, if you are not physically fit for a license, you might like to know about it before spending any money at all on flying lessons.
