In the beginning

Falcon124 | August 16, 2008 | 5:19 pm

Hey there and welcome to my flight blog – I’ve been wanting to get my butt in the air for ages and have tried a number of times, including gliding, ballooning and the usual fixed wing lessons. From going up for a flight with friends to working on the tarmac at Avalon Airshow, from being ground crew with hot air balloons in Melbourne to spending time in Boeing & Airbus simulators, I’m doing what I can to keep myself surrounded with aviation.

This blog and this site are to track my dreams & trials as they relate to flight. I’ve got lots to load already from my past but there’s also getting things sorted out for now. Like Pink Floyd’s “Learning to Fly” song, my current condition is “grounded” but I’m working on changing that.

Watch this space!
