lol, jason's plane flipped on runway... bloody long grass caught up in the wheels at landing or something..
Dirt run ways are scary!

Not particularly, I've landed on them, you just have to treat it (like any other runway) with respect and land carefully as always.

Were you nervous?

I'd say I was a little excited when he said it was time, but honestly not nervous at all... I knew I was ready for it, but even so it was a nice thrill... It was more interesting to note the differences in performance of the aircraft.

For those interested in shooting snapshots, I'll be doing some flying tomorrow afternoon (solo again after precheck flights) around 4PM in the afternoon. For the first 30 minutes it'll be emergency checks, so a few engine failure simulations etc, and then after that, it's one hour solo. If you see a little plane with VH-KXW on the wing, it's me, take a snap and post it. ^_~ I'll shout you a beer in town on Friday night.
