Lee Thomas - First Solo Flight At RAF Waddington
Loading...
Uploaded by leethomas123 on Mar 2, 2009
On the 30th August 2008 I flew my first solo flight in a Piper Cherokee at RAF Waddington. This involved me flying 3 circuits with my instructor. He was very happy with my proficiency and authorised me to fly solo. It was a truly amazing experience! Many thanks to my instructor David Cockburn and Waddington Flying Club.

Keep it up (no pun intended), just pay attention to the stories the old guys tell. Remember, flying is always best done in the middle of the air. The edges can be seen by ground and interstellar space, and both are hard to fly in.
Let me know if there's any hints and tips you want passed your way...
