Lifelong dream

Postby Chris » Fri Feb 08, 2008 1:31 pm

Hi there people

My name is Chris, iam a 23 year old wannabee flying fanatic.
I live in Pretoria, and spend most of the sundays at microland, dreaming that one day I will be starting my MPL.


Are there a way that i can maby meet one of you guys out there, I will pay you just for a short flip. I tried the internet and cant find anyone in Gauteng who do these fun flips. I did once flew in a microlite in Margate, and it was amazing! I would really like to fly again.
Hope to be hearing from someone.
My sel number- 0823186170

email- pietersechris@gmail.com

Thanx guys!

Chris,

Just go for it. I have waited to land and only started late. Now really know what I have been missing. Jump and swim, you will survive.

Chris, I took my first flip 20 years ago at age 15. Heaven knows - I always had excuses (money, marriage, etc..) to wait a year or two more. The more you wait the more you will miss.. I am only on three hours instruction now, and for the love of me, I can kick myself for not doing it earlier. Just find a way and JUMP! :wink:

It gets better and better with every flying minute-even when you dont fly, just to be at the airfield with other pilots is good.
