My First Passenger

Robs got the honour of being my first official passenger on friday. We had planned to head up towards kells and then over to slane to have a look at where he'd been canoeing up and down the boyne. Also figured we could go sightseeing and find newgrange and possibly even the hill of tara on the way back. However when we got to the field reports of the clouds getting lower out west and coming from the south scared me off a little and in the end decided to play it safe and jus play in the circuit for a while. Actually it was probably the first time i'd done circuits off 07 so adds to the experience.

Important thing is rob survived and even survived his door popping open as we headed off down the runway - Probs wuda been better if i didnt have to roll over towards his side pushing him towards his open door before getting the chance to slam it shut - but thats the way the man told me to go - and he did at least have his seat belt on :P Well there you go memo to self check doors are closed!!

Had 6 trips round the circuit with 5 pretty decent landings and 1 go-around cus the radio was busy and i cudn't get my call in! only annoyed cus it wuda been a good landing too - I think rob liked it tho and im sure he'll come again to go sightseeing!!
