Default RE: Newbie Introduction!

So - a quick update!
I haven't been able to do much flying this summer due to having a far too busy schedule!
BUT I have now flown my first jet - A Boomerang Nano - which was awesome. And I have started to build my very own pink and purple Ultra Flash. Although that is now on hold whilst I move house! I hope to spend some decent time on it after then.
My first Jet experience was a scary and exhilirating one - I got goosebumps - but I couldn't stop smiling. I didn't take off or land, and I made sure I was WAY up in the sky. And luckily it was a beautiful day for it.
The last plane I flew was last week in Germany. I was lucky enough to attend the German Jet Formation Cup as a team manager. And on the Friday (Practice day)  they was a spare slot, and so I decided to get the Venom out and have a fly. It was lovely after several weeks of not flying anything, and I got some positive feedback about my flying style which was nice to hear.
My goal for the winter is to get my certificates, and get a move on with my Flash build, and then you never know, I may see you at some of the UK shows next summer :-)
My next show to attend is the BMFA Nationals this weekend, and then the JetPower show in Germany in September.
I will be on the Motors & Rotors stand, so come and say hi if you're there!
