Big thing far away, small thing not so far away...
I had a trial flying lesson today - the first time I've operated a real aircraft.
Exciting and interesting in equal measure.
I have a reasonable handle on the basic principles of flight both from general interest and from doing my A2 drone certification, but putting it into practise on a real aircraft is quite a different kettle of fish.
This is the aircraft I flew today, on the flight before mine - my father-in-law was behind the controls here, having his first flight too.
We had a great instructor, who clearly loves everything about flying - he's a NATO pilot for work, and instructs for fun at the weekend.
