Well done Dreamer , a few words of wisdom ,
if in doubt , no dought , respect life , privacy and the machine you fly ,
Always have a plan , what to do if the weather changes , a plan for an engine out , a plan to really enjoy the day a plan to make someone elses day - a plan some day to take someone up who has never had a flight .
Alway remember to be officer and a gentleman , Check the accident stats , it makes one think doesnt it - a few years ago everyone told you microlighting is safe - check what happened ???
Today we are led to beleive Gyros are safe- one a month out of +- 200 flying , whos fooling who -
Enjoy your new found freedom and may the Leprachauns look out for you
Cherish the new found sport as you would your family

A pilot lives by perfection , or not at all!
