Went to PPL intro course.. came to quick conclusion I can't afford it(Belgium does not have cheap fuel like USA)..
Went to Glider field next week.. came to quick conclusion I can afford it and now I have a new hobby.. Took a flight with instructor, intro, got some stick but wasn't a real lesson.. Gotta wait for the new season next spring to get full course going..
This is the sailplaine I flew in:
Total fun, was a perfect day, got a tow to bout 1500 AGL et and we went to about 2500 (airspace restriction and not enough much thermals) At some point a buzzard or some other bird of prey was soaring just 30 feet above us... pretty awesome..
