Tuesday - Thursday

Got to fly again this week! The second flight of the week was the most exciting one as we concentrated almost exclusively on hover practice and it's variations.
Managed to get the hover down (mind you, I'm not sticking it yet), hover turns too. A bit more difficult is sideways flight, that not up to par yet.
On another exciting note, we went to check out a shiny helicopter that just landed on one of the helipads. We come up from a distance and see this mafia-lookalike get out (ponytail, dark suit, dark glasses) along with a small entourage.
As we come in for a closer look the mafia-lookalike turns out to be an impressive (6' 5") Steven Seagal. Seriously. Turns out he's doing a movie in the area. No pictures allowed though. Check flickr for pictures of his chartered helicopter soon.
p.s.: My apologies for all you daily blog checkers, haven't had the time to post daily. Don't know if that's going to change any time soon.

By the praise of Satan! Steven Seagal of wa?! Dude... Is die in 't echt ook zo houterig of beweegt hij normaal??
Allez terug mogen vliegen of wa?! Keigoe hé maat, wel normaal dat niet àlles van den eerste keer goed lukt hé...en dan nog, dan weet ge ineens aan welk aspect ge extra aandacht moet besteden.
