Nice shots, BUT, if you were having a "FLYING LESSON" how did you manage to take the photographs?

Agree with XPLUMBER, I used to get a roasting for even looking at aircraft on the ground during a lesson never mind photographing them. "Aviate, navigate, communicate", nowhere does it include photograph. Anyway good luck with the lessons and stick with it, we've all been through rough patches during training but it's worth it when you come out of the sausage machine with a shiny new licence. Do you spotting on the ground.

Still there. As it was a Saturday I'd imagine they were all tucked up in bed.
