What the hell.........
Split up with long term girlfriend and went on 3 year drinking & partying binge….(Its ok I was only 20, so its pretty normal at that age!!)
I then decided one day that though I was having a lot of fun I was wasting my life away so I stopped going out partying and decided to achieve my life long ambition of gaining my pilots licence instead.
I gained my PPL about 2 yars ago at Moray Flying club based at RAF Kinloss during which time I was also a civilian instructor for Air Cadets VGS unit on the Grob 109B .
I then converted onto the PA28 and did a night rating shortly after but I unfortunately had to leave the VGS due to work demands and so I bought a share in a C172 closer to my home in Aberdeen.
I now have about 140hrs TT and am studying ATPL's on OATS correspondence course whilst trying to hold down a job and save like mad.
I will shortly be giving up work though to concentrate on studying full time and hope to commence CPL/IR flight training early next year.
Not very exciting but now you know.......
Regards
UA
