Round and round we go...

After obtaining my Australian Private Pilots Licence in October last year I have been remarkably lapse in not flying for the last month or so. Yesterday I decided to put this wrong right and drove off to my flying school at Camden.

It was hot, 37 degrees according to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology. Kneeling on the tarmac to check the fuel of the Cessna confirmed this as I swiftly got a rag to kneel on to save burning my knees.

Anyhow, after fueling the aircraft and checking it out (and remembering how to start it) I taxed off to runway 04. After the pre-takeoff checks I took off and headed into the local area before rejoining and practicing my circuits with five take off and landings. I was pleased that I had not forgot how to land the plane!

After flying on such a great day, albeit a bit on the hot side, I can't wait to get in the cockpit again soon. I'm hopefully taking two friends up on Sunday and doing a flight along the Sydney coast line - I hope the weather holds!
