Eric arrived on Monday 11th ready to start training to first solo but we had torrential rain that day and had to cancel most flights. He kept busy with watching videos and reading theory on the GoFly Online platform. On Tuesday he took his first lesson. Over the following 12 days (some good weather and some very average winter weather) he did flying lessons each morning and studied in the afternoons; passing the two exams required for first solo.

This morning, on what has turned out to be a perfect day, he took his first solo flight under the supervision of Senior Instructor Tom. Well done Eric and well done instructors!

Doug chose a day with great weather and said he loved his trial flight over to Moreton Island yesterday.

Senior Instructor Tom’s day didn’t start too well this morning*, but at least it ended on a high for him and Ben with a lovely sunset.

*More rain! Unexpected maintenance issues! Competing demands! Student deadlines! Scarce supplies of oil due to stupid wars! Limited time to get to Heck Field and back before last light, to unexpectedly collect an aircraft! More rain clouds to dodge! None of his favourite biscuits in the biscuit jar!

In breaking news, another solo flight has taken place this morning. After 12 hours of overnight rain, the skies cleared just in time for Senior Instructor Ben to send Enzo solo.

Enzo had worked his way through the new GoFly Online RPC course, successfully completed his pre-solo and radio exams and had around around 21 hours of training. Well done Enzo!

At the end of yesterday’s lessons, our full-time student, Noor, was deemed ready to attempt his first solo. With the date of his trip home fast approaching, and a forecast of rain today, we had to cross all our fingers and toes this morning. There were low clouds and heavy rain at 7.30 but he waited until it cleared, and got airborne after 9.30 to do a few circuits with Senior Instructor Tom. He then took his first solo!

Tom says, ‘Noor has an awesome attitude, engages in the lessons and asks great questions. He studies hard and it was a great pleasure to be able to fly with him and kickstart his journey in aviation’.

It then rained all the rest of the day, so the weather gods were smiling on him.

Scott enjoyed his trial flight out to Moreton Island and back yesterday. It was meant to rain yesterday but was clear all day, though winds were too strong for private hirers.

Corneliu from Camden had his Sling TSi in with AMS this week. All week we were admiring his orange, black and white Sling. All week he was admiring our orange, black and white caps. We gifted him a cap.

Alas, he did not give us his plane.
