The Oaks - Local
I lost my mind for a brief moment today and found myself to be seated in Jabiru 1817!!

My first question to Darren was while he was just about to do the checks before take off was "Whats That"? to which he replied "the Flaps".
Right’o, I’m ready...and before I know it we are up, was nice and smooth, Darren knew not to go too high (2500ft) and I only wanted to go for 10mins...
While I managed to take a few pic's in between trying to hold my hand still and asking Darren was everything okay...
Okay I want to go back now and we finished with a very very nice landing I had my eyes open and remember the whole thing not like before!!!
Thank god that’s over for another 6 months...
And Thanks Uncle Fred for the Great Coffee :D
Take off!
