Flying for real
16 April, 2023 in Uncategorized
As a child, I was fascinated by airplanes. I remember spending hours with my dad building model aircrafts (mostly gliders) and then flying them; and, as I got a bit older, my experiences with the first rudimentary flight simulators, such as the well known Sublogic’s “Flight Simulator II” for the Commodore 64.
Well, after so many years, thanks to a friend’s suggestion, I have finally decided to enroll in a flight school and to obtain my VDS license; although these are two-seater ultralight aircrafts, they are very much like general aviation aircrafts and are flown in much the same way. It’s truly exciting to actually pilot a Tecnam P92! From the virtual skies of my childhood to the real-world vastness I navigate today, this is a journey of passion, dedication, and the fulfillment of a dream that once seemed as distant as the stars!
