Smile do not give up, it happens . . . . . . !

My first ten hours were at a different school to where I eventually got my PPL, and they actually managed to convince me that my chosen aim was beyond me ! After all that time felt almost no further forward. Those instructors were hours-building CPL's with an airline career in mind, and my presence in the left seat was, if anything, a mild irritation !

Two years later was persuaded to try again at a different airfield, and still fly from there now 26 years later ! During the student days went through all the doubts expressed above, but this time my instructor's quality and constant support and encouragement made all the difference.

Keep at it ! It WILL all fall into place when the time is right ! !
