What a day - Paul and I went up in a four seater plane for a pleasure ride it was great. I have bean patiently waiting for this but circumstances made this impossible, some my fault some the weather some date clashing.The big day had come bright sunshine and a bit of wind so perfect.

Paul and I ready for lift off. I Know its not a rocket.!
Dave the pilot doing the flight checks.
We all had to wear head phones and a mic. We could hear all Air Traffic control messages and each other. This continuous noise was very hard for me and made it difficult to concentrate.I got used to it after a while. Things like this upset the RSD.
I am sat in the front.
The control.
Wallington sat in the back with Paul.

We were in luck - a flyby was taking place a plane called Dakota
Waiting and looking.

A fantastic day. the vibrations were good no worse than a good, bus ride. Not too much pain. I am so pleased I had this chance to do this. A very big thank you to Dave and Lyn for making this possible. Also thank you to Wallington and Lyn for a lovely day.
RSD makes it difficult a lot of the time to have fun days so this was a real treat, the RSD wasn't too affected. Hope you all enjoyed this special blog as much as I did. Love Gill.
