INtense! Went flying blog

So Bigbird (a long time ModDB member and admin) just so happens to be a pilot-in-training and was awesome enough to take me up for a flight over WA to Rottnest Island (basically a cool-reef surrounded place) 40mins away from Fremantle.

I've been lucky enough to fly everywhere round the world for work and fun, but can't say i've ever had the chance to take control of a plane (albeit do nothing except hold her steady) and yeah it was pretty damn cool as you'd expect. Cool because Aus is an awesome country so heaps to see out the window. Plus doing wheelies in a plane on the runway is something I doubt many people have had an opportunity to experience.
