Probably my first solo flight, that was a good feeling, being able to fly on my own at 16, before I could drive. I fly every saturday which is pretty good, only need another five solo's and a grade 2 flying test then I'll be a grade 2 pilot.

It seems that a few people do flying, would like to try for my PPL sometime in the future. I would have tried for a parachuting course that I could get on this summer but it clashes with my officer and aircrew selection for the RAF

Let us know how you get on with your adventures and make sure you take plenty of pictures :-)

My grandma is very much into her travels aswell!

Her latest adventure was a visit to alaska and the ice -plains , which she said was a truely spectacular and unforgetable experience.

Look forward to hearing from you soon

All the best!

LOL Stuart I got on that course But last years one
I ahve also gone solo in a glider at the age of 16 and hopefully should get solo in a powered aircraft (This is not a PPL!)

Other than that, the first launch of my EX HPR rocket. Damn, that was awesome.
Or the last pyro show I was part of.
