I have just spoiled my birthday present by finding out what it is. But it leaves me with a problem and I thought you guys may be able to help. I’ll try to keep this as short as possible but it needs some background. I first became interested in flying as a teenager when I saw that James Bond film with the autogyro in it. About 5 years later I was invited to Barton airport near Manchester to see the promotional autogyro that BA were then taking to air shows, this was where I really fell in love with the industry. The only problem at that time was I already had a young family and mortgage and there was no way I could afford to get into the industry. Some years have passed and following a divorce, re-marriage another new family and emigration to Australia, I still haven’t got into the air other than a couple of trial aerobatic flights. Anyway on Thursday it will be my 45th birthday and after being a Wannabe for about 30 years (is this a record), I have just found out that the money my wife talked me into extending the mortgage to get, is not for a new car, it is to pay for my PPL. This is where the problem comes in, my wife’s birthday is only 16 days after mine….. What the hell can I get her that can compare with this???
