With the limited opening hours, I have to take whatever flight lessons I can. We didn’t know if the weather would be good enough when we booked this the day before, but the ceiling ended up being high enough for what we needed.

A thing you’ll learn quickly when starting with flight training, is to expect cancellations. The first attempt at this lesson was cancelled due to low clouds and rain. We got clear skies and very little wind for the next attempt, so can’t really complain too much about this one!

I decided to start on flight lessons in parallel with the theory, so almost exactly one month after the discovery flight, I had my first flight lesson And this time I got to do almost everything myself!

A couple weeks before my discovery flight, I noticed something that made me stop when I scrolled through my Facebook wall. The local airport, which I of course follow, shared a posts from the local flying club, which I amazingly enough had never heard of. The Facebook post that started it all Can I really do this I’ve dreamt about learning to fly for a very long time, and with the option to do it only 15 minutes from home, I didn’t have any other choice - I had to give this a try!
