Hi everyone
Had another good flying lesson late on Saturday - no frogs or any other animals hiding under the aircraft to complicate the preflight check this week! Thanks for all the help on frogs life expectancy - my instructor Jimmy was very pleased he was right all along (why is it that he's always right???)
Anyway, did Ex10 this weekend... SCARY STUFF!!! Particularly when the wing dropped for the first time :eek:
As I was the last lesson of the day, Jimmy took me out for a few beers with some other students and pilots from the flying club. Turned into quite a good evening as we all ended up drinking far too much, walking home, getting a kebab on the way. Have always wondered what kebabs are made of (maybe its best not to know?) - the meat is never exactly recognisable is it! Knew full well on Sunday morning I had eaten a kebab with far too much chilli sauce!
Next weekend it's into the circuit. Very excited. Will let you know how I get on.
