Guys,

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night (select according to timezone and hangover status.)

I've decided to go for ze PPL - went for Class 2 on Friday and... well, I was bundled out of the surgery with the doctor shouting: 'And don't come back for 5 years!'

Me: "I won't!"

Doc: "Promise?"

Well after the shock of the probing wore off I wondered what I could do with the medical.

a. I could ignore it and save up for my granny's complicated eye operation.

b. I could FLY!!!!!

Naturally I chose wisely.

Option b of course. I'll buy the granny a glass eye... ok, a marble.


Anyway, some of you might have seen my thread on Stick & Rudder (now deleted - the tidal wave of opinion clinched it (cheers tKf & Sunfish et al) 'tis a good book).

So I'm going to start as soon as my granny's inheritance comes through. Or maybe I'll pay my own way.

(Just checked the will - she left me the marble. Touching.)

But before I start in summer (April to you and me), I'd just like to thank you guys for continuing this thread - I've never gotten so much useful information from any other forum. And long may it last. This is truely PPRuNe at it's best.

Cheers,
Conf
