Just has my first trial lesson at EGLD and it was bumpy.

Hi I am still in a state of shock lol. I was in the Captains seat circling over Checquers at around 2200ft.

I have never been up in a small aircraft before and this was something else. The wind was very rough and the plane was been blown everywhere.

Luckily I hadn't eaten much or else it may have come back up.

It was a great days outing and now I can see how my flight simulator matches to the real thing.

Maybe I will book the discovery flight in the summer when the weather is better.

But my insides are still turning lol.
