Well, it's been a while. I should probably start by saying Happy New Year!
So, my last blog post was just when I got back from my hour building trip in South Africa. A lot has changed since then. First of all I received my A-level results.. which weren't so bad, I'm happy with them :-)
I also started my first full time job working as a Customer Service Representative for a large orange courier company who have their UK head office based just down the road from me. This helped me fund for some hour building in the UK.. and that's what I did!
I was also fortunate enough to be offered a position as a glider tow pilot (starting in April) at a gliding club based in the Midlands as long as I logged a few hours in gliders, which is the next objective on my list, as well as finishing my night rating in the Grob 115 in the image above. The fun never stops!
So for the foreseeable future, this is where I am at, and it doesn't look too bad.
I'll keep you updated :-)

Hi Michael,
ReplyDeleteI manage FlyingLessons.co.uk. We're a new business aimed at helping people in the UK to find introductory flying lessons, whether as gifts or as the first step towards gaining their own pilot's licence.
We currently offer reviews and price comparison on 100s of lessons around the UK, and we also have a number of professional instructors on board to write informative articles for prospective trainee pilots.
As a recent start-up, it's important for us to build links with authoritative aviation sites like yours. I'm writing to ask if you would consider adding a link to our site on your blog. We really think we can make life easier for people who are interested in taking the first steps into aviation, and your support would be a hug help.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Many thanks,
Jake Tibbits
