Happy New Year

Once again, I've taken a bit of a break from my flying lessons. After my last lesson, my husband talked to the instructor who said I best get my medical and go up with out B-Cat on my next session.  This has posed somewhat of a problem as I haven't made the time over Christmas and New Years to go in and get said medical.  Oh well, the weather over the past couple of weeks has been a bit of a mixed bag.

I still like a good flight though and a few days ago on a mint day, hubs and I packed up my father in law's super sporty DynAero and went to Whitianga for lunch.  Well, we arrived there about 3:30pm so it was a pretty late lunch and the food was a bit crap...

Anyway, on to a few photos!

Heading back towards Auckland - so many beautiful sights along the way :)

Since this is a New Year's post, I guess I'm meant to tell you my resolutions...

1.  Get my medical so I can actually focus on going solo :)
2.  Start my new job.
3.  Strike a positive work/life balance with plenty of flying!
4.  Complete my PPL this year.

  1. Very nice airplane!
    Hi, I'm a female private pilot in Canada. My husband and I fly our Cessna all over the place, including to the Bahamas!
    I agree that flying needn't be a boys club and so does Mireille, another female pilot in Canada who is organizing the Women of Aviation Worldwide week. Check out the website at http://womenofaviationweek.org/

  2. Thanks for the link Lesley, I will check it out. The DynAero is really fast, like driving a Ferrari!
