on my birth day ( May the 14th)
i invited a couple of my friends up in the plane.
it was fun, when we got to the airport (tyabb , victoria australia) it was busy, there were helos flying every ware. I had to lauph at a Cessna 152 who landed 2\3 down the runway.  We got on board VH-TBL cessna 172 and took off. We then went spotting for our houses. my mate saw his house. We then went out to Port philip bay and flew along the Coast(of the bay) at 500feet.
Beautiful sunset it was!!!
My friend then flew , i was in the back and i got scared when he flew because he has never flown before. We then flew past Mt.Eliza to find my friends house, i thought i saw it but was hard to see from all the trees.
Over frankston we did some ups and downs wich are you pull up then push the nose down so there is no gravity in the plane. We then went back to tyabb to land. My dad did a glide landing with no power at all.
The landing was soft and we landed at the start of the runway to.
IT WAS SO FUN

Called zero/negative Gs.  I was advised by my fighter pilot instructor NOT to pull these.  Guess he was trying to keep something down  Grin

Sounds like a load of fun, I can't take my friends up until I'm finally 17 next year Cry

Happy 5 days ago birthday Wink
