:lol: , so I've had another two hours of training. Been doing some low, and I mean low flying over the runway, picking the spot to put her down. Flying in some serious thermals, landing in cross winds, coss-down winds. :lol:

We also been doing some landings at Aero57 on runway 36 (over the trees and downhill). It is awesome. I have been learning a lot in the last couple of hours that I have flown :lol:

Hallo Tracer & Co (Blonne Hexsee),

Yes, it was nice meeting U 2 (as in both).

It looks like that only yourself and me, wore our Microlighters caps with pride.

Voorspoed with the hour building and the lekker early cold mornings.
This is a sacrifice that not one flyer minds.

Groetnis,
Hannes.

Got another hours flying time this morning.... excellent. :lol: :lol:

Did a couple of very nice soft landings..... we were also flying through an Inversion layer after every landing, which was quite hectic, but it was a nice experience and I know now what to expect.

Almost there..... :lol: :lol:

Great that you are getting some air time in !!

Hozit JFK,

I should be going solo very soon. Then I will be able to get the hours clocked quite quickly.

It will be nice to meet you as well. Where do you fly from?
