A selection of photos from the past two weeks on my Air Cadet Pilot Scheme with Tayside Aviation in Dundee.  :)

Birdstike?... Everyone was pretty stumped by how this happened! (I wasn't flying at the time, so blame was away from me!  :o ::) :P)

FlyBe Saab 340 coming into Dundee at sunset

Me and my lovely solo aircraft, F*ckup Foxtrot! She has been nicely fixed after her crash in 2005!  ::) :P

Got my whole 12 hours of free flying and loved every minute of it! Even got an hour solo too which was equally ace!

I want to go back for more!  :)

Cheers,

Luke

Excellent. Well done indeed! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I've seen it in your previous post but that second shot is a cracker.

As for the 'bird strike' I've never seen anything like it. Looks like it hit something a tad more solid to me. I can't see any signs of blood.

those shots thru the windscreen are excellent!!

As for the prop: I'm thinking somebody hit a wire, or maybe a sign while taxiing. Is the other blade damaged?
At any rate, a coupla licks with a file and it'll be good to go (not).  :D
