I thought I'd write a quick update on my progress with my ATPL subjects.

Day 5 - the test!
Another fantastic day this morning and I drove down to Williamstown going over all checks and reference numbers in my head ready for the final check flight for my basic float alighting gear endorsement.

Day 4
I woke up to another fantastic morning to fly floats. I thought about how lucky I was with the weather, but thought it best not to jinx myself so quickly replaced those thoughts with the task at hand.

Day 3
A week had passed since I last flew and I pretty much sprung out of bed when the alarm went off and saw another corker of a day starting out my window.

Day 2
Another beautiful day greeted me this morning and I quickly made my way down to Williamtown, ready to take in on what ever Rod would throw at me, even though my mind was still slightly spinning from all the stuff from the previous day.

One could safely say that I have always been happiest when my feet weren't on terra firma,
I had always loved to fly and adored the water. So much so, that I worked on tourist boats in north Queensland to get some free dives or earn some extra money,
not your average holiday jobs, but a whole lot of fun, even if it was hard work and long hours.

Like most people viewing this, I have suffered from kinked necks, and baffled stares from my peers whenever my head was turned skywards when an aeroplane passed overhead ever since I was a young child.
