Hi Yall-

[Simonflyer]

Hi.

 

I Have just started flight training over the last few months, and am completely obsessed.I am training at Locksley with Sue Carol(And Nathan) from Secure flight training(Also Based in Shep) in a nice new tecnam, and I cant rate the whole setup highly enough.

 

I did a lot of research before beginning this journey, as i am doing my RA and GA Training side by side, and hope to go on to instructing in both fields and then onto who knows from there, but the difference between flying at Locksley as opposed to trying to do it at moorabbin-well there's no competition..

 

No wait times on the ground, once your up, your straight into the training area, and there is the beautiful views of the strathbogie ranges nearby which i cannot wait to go explore, and initially i think having limited traffic in the air has been useful for me to get used to the plane first before going into more built up airspace..

 

I am up to the point where i have now completed several sets of circuits, and am landing the plane without assistance(most of the time).People tell me that solo is probably not too far away, so thats pretty exciting.

 

Anyway.just thought id leave a note and say gday.

 

Simon

G'day Simon,

 

Welcome to the forums. Good setup at Locksley, :thumb_up: nice little airfield and very nice people. Plenty of places to visit once you spread your wings. Shepparton, Benalla, Mangalore, Bendigo and ECHUCA, to name just a few. :big_grin::big_grin:

 

regards
