I'm In Love

I had my first flight yesterday in a Piper warrior 2 I think the name of it was. The best fun I have ever had. I done it all. Took off, flew circuts and had a blast. The only thing I didnt do was land the thing. Was a tad scary as there was a cost guard trainning hele in the way. Onwards and upwards for my PPL

Gosh, you're easily pleased - most of us would hold out for at-least a Super-Cub before expressing undying love.

Best of luck, enjoy your PPL.

All in the love for anything that flies around here . he said that plane is very forgiving. What I will be using is a technam which will be a better suited plane. He was saying the lads who trained on the warrior nearly lost there life in the technam ?? P2002-JF: EI-WFD

Not sure what "had a blast" means from an Irish(wo)man. Might translate to "had a bloath", praps?
Then again, I do have observed (some of) them to fall in love easily, or even "lightly".

Nice spot, and a friendly airport Waterford. Whilst I don't know the local flying club as such, I can think of much worse places to learn to fly.
