The Sky is Calling Me. Do I answer?
A few weeks ago I was watching Episode 78 of Mahalo Daily. In this episode Veronica Belmont was explaining the steps to get a Private Pilot’s License. As a starting point, at most airfields they offer an ‘air experience’ for under $100. In this experience you are taken up with an instructor for about 30 mins and given the controls of a light aircraft, usually a Cessna C150 2 seater trainer.
This episode peaked my interest.
For as long as I can remember I’ve had an interest in flying, to the point where when I was in high school I had the aim to study the subjects required to attend the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA) to become an Air Force Fighter pilot.
That dream died a very quick death. But I had never lost the interest to possible attain my pilot’s license.
After watching this episode I went and booked a Trial Introductory flight at Warnervale Airfield.
Now what an experience that was.!
