Welcome and Announcements

Welcome to my Gliding Blog

Unfortunately due to time constraints, I am no longer able to update this blog.

This blog is dedicated to sharing my experiences in learning to fly a glider at the FAUH airfield (Uitenhage, South Africa).

What you will find on this website:

• A diary of my flying experiences, first as a student pilot learning to fly and now as a rookie trying to soar.
• Books on gliding and soaring.
• Amazing photos to download for your PC's desktop.
• Jokes, funny quotes, comics and amusing pictures.
• Information on my home airfield and gliding club.

Within the blog's pages you'll find:

• Details on each of my flights.
• Lessons learnt during each flight.
• My impressions and feelings of the day's events.
• The costs involved in learning to glide.
• Information on each day's wind and weather.
• Other milestones and events in my quest to fly.
