First passenger

20/06/2021

Going solo is the “biggie” for all student pilots. But it doesn’t stop there. We move on to the “C” Certificate and beyond. This includes, for many, gaining the Passenger / Friends rating.
Today, David Gibbs had the opportunity to exercise his passenger rating for the first time.
All aspects of the flight were observed by a friendly crew of self-appointed critics. To our delight, David flew a perfect circuit and an absolute “greaser” of a landing, much to the delight of his first passenger. We hope that they will be the first of many.
