Order of the day,

Very nervous
More nervous
Damn this fine weather, damn the car has started,

arrived at airfield-
complete denial, decided I wasnt ready

Flying with instructor-
Tried to talk him out of sending me

Instructor out of aircraft-
Soiling of trousers an option

Lining up-
Mortal fear

Rotation-
No going back now, resignation to the impending fate


Downwind-
This is really quite cool

Base-
No this is really very f cool

Touchdown- ( I think it was 3 in total off one approach!!!!)
wanna go again now now now now can I pleeeeeease!!

The Bar-
Pissed.

Seven years on its the best feeling I have ever had, lots of flights lots of achievements but that one was still the best all 6 minutes of it.
