Going solo in a c42 microlight - The MicroPilot

My very first time flying an aircraft (c42 Icarus) with myself officially being the Pilot In Command (PIC). The whole thing lasted around ten minutes after flying circuits with my instructor at Lashenden (Headcorn) aerodrome. Huge thanks to my instructors Chris and Tom and the rest at Flight Sport Aviation for getting me this far!!

Excellent! I can't wait for mine, and I'm 51! Well done sir. And what a nice instructor. Sometimes you just know by someone's demeanor that they are genuinely nice. Outstanding team.

Thank you very much and thanks for watching!

@@TheMicroPilot I'd stick to flying fixed wing.. I don't trust those spinning top things.
