....I had my first flight. Cessna 150 G-BFLM from Bodmin Airfield, Runway 03 with Dick Smerdon. Never thought I would be writing this today, as that one flight started a love for aviation and one that has opened so many doors. 1750 hours later and a lot of money, but loved every minute of it.
So many highlights......10 Harvards, 2 P-51s, TBM Avenger, Staggerwing, Piston and Jet Provost, T-34, T-28s, Stearmans (Stearmen?), Jungmann, Stampe, C-45, C-47....lots and lots of Austers, Broussard to France, Irish sea twice in an AOP9, Floatplanes in Canada, Martin 404 at Oshkosh, microlight to 10000ft, the list goes on and on. Very lucky indeed.
So today, trying to get up again, but what with this wonderful British weather, isn't looking that good. But its early, so perhaps try for this afternoon.
Best wishes,
Martin
