D:
Wicked, Dad. Absolutely great!
F:
Come on, sit down. I want to hear all about it
– everything!
D:
Well, first of all, when I got to the airfield, I checked in at the
reception and they told me what was going to happen. Then I
was introduced to the instructor. He was so nice. Really relaxed
and friendly
– so I began to feel a
bit less nervous! And when I
saw the plane I nearly ran away!
F:
Why?!
D:
It was so small and light- it looked as
if it would break up if you
touched it!
F:
But you did get in it?
D:
Of course I did! Anyway, then he showed me all the controls and
what was what. Then we took off! Well,
he took off! That was
awesome! What an amazing sensation, flying up over
the fields
and trees, and looking down at the tiny cars and people below.
Then came the most exciting bit. I steered the plane on my own.
Wow! I couldn’t believe how easy it was. And much more fun
than driving a car!
