Cheq - thanks for that writeup mate, I thought mine were big! I had butterflies just reading that QXC report - a job well done!

Bahn - welcome aboard mate, always nice to see new diary-ites ! Best of luck in your training, you will enjoy every minute of it (apart from your first navex hehe)

Well, I have officially logged my first hour (and 5 mins) on Wednesday - took the afternoon off work to take a colleague up and we had a great time. Went north then towards Wigan and Winter Hill etc - done a few spiral dives, some climbs/descents and some general handling, not only as good practice for me, but to see the amazement on my friends face! It truly was worth all the training and money to do something so good. I was having butterflies about the crosswind on the way back in, but I managed a decent landing and was very happy with the way things went - the big bonus was that the flight was £10 cheaper than normal as I don't pay student rates any more! Happy days!

Cheers all,

Lee
