Just a shout out to many of you hoping to come up for a fly with me soon. Unfortunately I had to sell my wings for financial reasons. The domino effect of life circumstances due to the flat spin of covid left me with having to sell her. I’ve had some of the best memories of my life in this thing, and the people who joined me were part of those amazing memories.
Anyone who knew me within the last 5 years, knows that taking up others was (and still is) a passion of mine and the best reward was giving someone an experience they’d never forget. I got addicted when I realised how moved people were from something I took for granted. I had been a solo hang glider pilot for ages (20 years), loving the experience for my own enjoyment, and having goals of cross country etc, but when I started taking passengers up in my trike, my inspiration changed from a self serving position, to what I can share with others who’d only dream of doing something like this and show them there really are cool dudes who love to share their passion with no strings attached 😎 My reason for getting up at 4am or lining up for a long cue at the ferry was force multiplied by the friends eagerly awaiting to join me in the air.
Anyway, hopefully within the next year to 2 years I’ll be back in the saddle again, but it’s a sad moment for now as I write this misty eyed post and I’ll sound the horn for those who are still wishing to come for a fly once I have a set of wings again.
Much love…as all I can give this world is the gift of flight 🦅 ❤️ - It was my way of showing I care to see people happy
