Flight Description
I
was quite exited to go flying again. I don’t
know why to be honest, as it was my fifth
time, but I was really looking forward.
There were 6 of us meant to be going, but 2
didn’t turn up. Luckily Gethin decided he
wanted to go flying again and turned up
anyway, as a spare.
When we got to St Athan, we were told the
pilots would be late, so we put a DVD on –
Jonny English.
When the pilots arrived, Dominic and I were
the first in air. My pilot was FLT Lt Sweet
and he seemed a very nice man, so I was
relaxed straight away.
LIFT OFF!!! And he talked me through the
take off, so straight away I was learning.
When we were in the air, we did aerobatics –
my pilot talked me through when he was doing
the preview of each of the moves – the loop,
figure of eight and a stall turn. When I was
ready to try myself, he let me take over and
do each of them myself. It’s an amazing
thing to do. But I messed the stall turn up
(XD)

smiley face (for old peoples benefit).
25 minutes was over and back to land we
went. Came into land and it was fine. Then
when we were on the ground the nose wheel
went mad, and we went shaky!! It was rather
funny
Got back inside & Jonny English had
finished, so I put Pirates of the Caribbean
on when everyone else went to have a fly.
Another great day out with the ATC
(XD). |
