Pilot
I Can Speak English
If you didn’t know already, I’m studying (cough) to get my Private Pilots’ License. This involves many exams, flying hours and bucks. Basically, I go in a few times a week and fly a light aircraft doing all sorts of manevours and navigations — I even learn to fly the plane without ANY engines and get to land without an engine :D.
A few months ago, I was ready to go for my first solo flight, when the lovely folks at CASA decided to mandate an English speaking test — even for native speakers! I went to book my test, but it was booked up for months on end! Basically, I had to stop flying for a few months to wait for this stupid exam. When the time came to do it, I walked into the room, sat down, and spoke about what I liked for 10 minutes. Grade: 6/6. Well done Shane.
Hopefully, I should get the damn license before the end of the year to go flying over Christmas :).
Here are some shots from the sky.
That’s all!
Have fun!
Shane.
