What a DAY, the biggest news being passing of my flight test, that’s right, I am officially now a licensed private pilot! Clear the skies!The photos: Large coffee dose to start the day; clear on the way in to the Mount; on the taxiway ready to test; post-mortem afterwards; Charlie the wonder rat trying to reach up to shake paws; Tim congratulating me; the wide angle get-my-school-on-the-blog-picture; the customary PPL picture; a monkey-posing pommie trying to get in on the action and steal my glory; and finally a tasty NZ beer, because I deserve it.
Wow what a long haul it’s been. Would I do it again? You bet.
No major celebrations tonight though, as I have two cross-countries to Auckland tomorrow! Maybe tomorrow night. 😉
Technical: 1.4 hrs dual, flight test.
