DISH breaks free !!!!

Postby Dish » Tue Dec 16, 2008 4:52 pm

The long awaited day came today... I have finally done my time in the circuit. Beautiful conditions on aviators side this morning allowed me to crack my last circuit hour and hence venture toward the great GF - Solo !! awesome....

Ventured away from AP and headed north of brits, back down toward wolhouterskop and aeroden and then the final little leg back to AP !!!! An amazing feeling to be allowed to venture away from the patch and know now that this is your plane. what happens happens because of you. A lovely flight, little bumpy in places but all in all fantastic. So now a few more hours in the GF, a couple f cross countries and a flight test lie ahead... cannae wait !!!

Congratulations Dish!

Isn't it just an amazing feeling of freedom? If you don't feel two feet taller afterwards there is something wrong with you.

Always remember the responsibility that comes with the priviledge young man!

Best wishes for many happy hours of safe flight!
