After taking a back seat flight some time in November, I decided it was time for a proper front seat introductory flight.

Two introductory flights with flight instructor F(1) in the Grob Twin Astir. Zero lift conditions so flights limited to winch release altitude of about a 1000ft, two or three turns and a left-hand traffic pattern to land on runway 26L. Total flying time for both flights is 9 minutes (Cost = 86,20ZAR).

How do I rate it? Awesome! Just those negative G’s when the winch rope is released make me feel not so lekker.
