Well done Mark and Ryan.

Grobbie, nice to see you making progress mate...you must pick ol Fanie's brain as much as you can. Great instructor.

Hey Bundy

I think it will take me years to learn what Fanie knows, he is very patient with me and also gives me a lot of room to test myself.

I just feel that now i am getting somewhere and all that I want to do now is just to fly.

Cheers

This was my last landing on RW 17, and I got this one almost perfect.

Hey Bundy

I think it will take me years to learn what Fanie knows....

What a great morning, did my landings with Mervin and did it on my own , now I can say I did my landings on my own - very proud of myself, and off course with the great experienced Mervin at my back.

Now I am getting somewhere
