Windy Dale

Wowee - a sunny start to the day! We flew to Norwich today for Debs first proper flying lesson - rather a quiet flight thanks to a grumpy Debs this time because of a misunderstanding on the radio with Wattisham (just don’t ask!). Met Dale (Anglia Flight) properly for the first time today… and he’s nothing like Nigel has said and he seems to be a very good instructor! We completed exercise 4 on the lesson today and even I was impressed - Debs managed to nail the art of trimming and was able to maintain her altitude and heading, all she has to do now is crack taxiing… think Dale has his work cut out there!! :-) Had a good flight home too even though Debs had another go… hasn’t she had enough today! Think I’m not too keen on windy weather though - ooh it was gusty on the way back to Norwich - I had my eyes shut… “So did I” said Dale!! But he still managed a really good landing - ooh I’m so glad to be back on the ground I could kiss him!! :-) Only joking Dale!!
