On turning the ripe old age of 50(!!) I thought I’d do something out of the ordinary - Aero Gliding. The family bought me a flight for my birthday and it took me 9 months to get around to arrange the occasion. Easter weekend seemed like a good idea. Despite lousy weather they still arranged a flight for me. I wasn’t disappointed! It was everything I’d imagined. The instructor even allowed me to take the controls and that was a bonus. I’m not sure how long I was up there but it was amazing! Because of the lousy weather we didn’t get to find any “hot spots” to keep our height and we had to head in before the “front” came in – as you’ll see, we only just made it. I’ll certainly go again – but next time I’ll pick a nice sunny day to do it next time. Anyone interested in taking a joy flight? I’d certainly recommend it! I hope you enjoy the photos. Deb
We set off for Cunderdin despite the lousy weather on Easter Sunday (8 April 2007).
Hey! Look at me! It’s really me! Bye! See you soon (I hope)!
Getting instructions just before take-off. A joy stick? Oh is that what it’s for……….(hehehehe).!
Faster, faster, faster! Hey – I hope that crack in the window is OK!
Going round and round and round to get some height – wheeeeeeee! It’s a bit salty down there.
Yup! We still have our wings. So quiet up here.............
Many thanks to the Cunderdin Gliding Club Have a Great Day!
