About Me
|
|
The World Of Me!
here comes trouble
Well... I'm Steph...I'm a gliding girl at heart, and no other form of flying will ever rate as highly to me as gliding does..I started gliding age 10, when my dad had a trial lesson, i got into a glider and next thing i knew there was an instructor behind me and we were half way up a winch launch. I guess that's when the flying bug bit me properly...
Currently an Aircraft maintanence engineering student at newcastle aviation academy, so on the way to earning my B1 engineers license :)

Aviation Background
|
|
earliest aviation memory... trying to climb over the railings at Duxford to get at a Tornado GR1, thats where my love of aircraft started
Been gliding since i was 10... am now 19.. so 9years.
i'm a solo glider pilot, working towards bronze, etc
Gliding Qualifications: Solo, A & B badges
Gliders flown: K21, K13, K6cr, ASH25, Nimbus 3DT, Duo Discus, K7, Twin Astir, Puchacz, T21, Grob 103
had my work experience on an airfield, so i clocked up quite a few hours of power flying as well as spending a large chunk of the time drooling at the Grace Spitfire that was sitting in the hangar
Powerplanes Flown: Cessna 150, Cessna 152, Robin 200, Auster, TB 10
Fave aircraft (just the 1?!?!?): well a close call between a good ole' spitfire and a tornado, but id have to say the tornado wins... just
