Hi All! I guess this "game" is almost the same as golf.............if the "gogga" bites you it's all over! Nevertheless, I started flying lessons with Flo about a month ago with some sort of progress! :lol: Well, hope to achieve what everyone else eventually achieves (in a safe manner) so I can really start enjoying life!

Time to add a photo here vhpy

I fly from Rhino Park, below are the current active planes, a Rans S12 with a Rotax 618 and a Streak Shadow with a Jabiru 2200A. Other projects in various stages of construction.

Mostly flying on Saturday and Sunday mornings, please visit, if not in the air you will find me working (fiddling ?) with the planes in hangars 18/19/25 vhpy

Fly safe and have fun !
