Layne goes flying - Part 3

[Layne.]

Some more, all of me, landing and takeoff

LOL!

Looks like we both go to the same airfield! I only go flying with my Dad every few weeks, in one of the 172's (usually VH-TBL). You're 14 - good. If you ever get the chance to do community service or work experiance, you may be abled to do it at the Old Aeroplane company - I can't guarrantee that you'll get a flight like I did, regardless, it was great fun and all the guys there were very friendly! Be warned you will come home smelling like some weird concoction of methylated spirits, fuel, and oil.

One more thing, Aerobatics is NOWHERE near at gut wrenching as you might think - I was in extacy the whole friggen time! T-28 cockpit is VERY roomy and comfortable too, I was allowed to fly - it handled friggen awsome, a stick is so much cooler than a wheel - they're for cars!


Now... it would be surprising if we went to the same school.

[Layne.]

Yeah lol but i live in Frankston hehehe our school has quite the reputation at Tyabb, next year i am getting two more C152 or Gazelle flight there and i might be doing work experience there. Rick the American showed us around. Finally someone around my area here HAHAHA

As a matter of fact i saw TBL today i think, there were quite a few 172's there, more Pipers than them lol, i like the R22 thats there aswell the white on i mean and the custom 172 that is there.

Yeah Rick was an instructor flying helicopters for the US Navy for, I think, 22 years.

I'm in Mt. Eliza.

[Layne.]

WOW Very close, almost thought you said Mt Erin lol

Good onya, although I can't believe you passed on a wingover in a 152... tsk, tsk...  ;)

Good work mate. Looks like you had a ball. Cool shots too.

Flying is addictive, you'll be wanting more now.
