oh the memories rekindled
all night sessions on a BBC Aviator AND Elite
Night Flight on the Spectrum
Flight Sim etc on a PC

Eventually a PPL

Just after getting my licence I went for an hours instrument instruction..It was a crappy day and spent most of it in cloud.After 20-30 mins of head in cockpit ( all grey outside ) I started to lose the plot and the worrying part ?...I did'nt care.. after all it was only a computer.. sudden realisation it was real life..sweaty brow..
Nowadays my only flying ( up front ) is into farm strips and small airfields.. oh the joy of no radios and minimal instruments.
