    If it's not one thing it's another. Today the camera ran and recorded audio, but recorded video in non-360 format which it turns out requires you to align the camera for framing and nobody in a little plane has time for that :D At least the weather was nice :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fwnk82ZtSCo #learningtofly #flyinginireland #vipersd4 #newcastleaerodrome

    Stupid camera battery died right as I moved off for my second solo flight 🤦‍♂️ And for the first solo flight, I left the lens cap on 🤦‍♂️ Add in the feedback squeal I keep getting with the new headset and it's just a wealth of annoying technical glitches :( #learningtofly #flyinginireland #vipersd4 #newcastleaerodrome

Since then there's been exams, which went well. And there was upper air work with stalls and turns and basic flying stuff and then there were lots and lots and lots of https://www.stochasticgeometry.ie/2024/05/27/solo/ #Flying #einc #flyinginireland #learningtofly #NewcastleAerodrome #ViperSd4

    We interrupted circuit practice for 5 minutes so I could, after a year of flying, say "I can see my house from here" :D :D :D #learningtofly #flyinginireland #vipersd4 #newcastleaerodrome
