Awesome experience !!

Postby pietmeyer » Fri May 24, 2013 2:05 pm

I just have to share this as I sitting here with a moerse grin on my face vhpy vhpy
After receiving my PPL last week, I left Wonderboom airport in my Jabiru for my first flight across the border. I flew to Jwaneng via Pilanesburg on Monday and returned this morning. Six hours of flying, controlled air space, customs etc. shared the circuits of Pilanesburg with a Gulfstream and had an awesome experience.
BIG difference to your flying companions when flying my trike vhpy

Now this weekend planned some serious trike flying to get back to real flying vhpy

Just had to share this as my adrenaline levels are through the roof at this stage. Next cross border flight planned for next week vhpy
Big boost for confidence as my license is less than a week old :shock:

Cheers
Piet
