All is not lost


OK. So I didn't get to fly today due to the weather. It didn't promise to be in my favour but I rang a few hours before my flight and was told that they were not flying. I am disappointed, but all is not lost. I just have to rebook.

As I mentioned before, it makes the idea of training in America more appealing. There are plenty of flight schools that do residential intensive courses and I am investigating those. I have so many options e.g. Florida,Atlanta. The research into each company is difficult because although they sound like they offer the same things, there are some differences. I need to be able to obtain a licence that allows me to fly in both UK and USA without having to go through a conversion. For the Private Pilots' Licence, this is easier to do, but if I want a Commercial Licence then I will probably have to sit a conversion test. Still, that is way ahead of me. I am trying to take one step at a time.

So, today, I will take some time endulging in another of my hobbies - allotmenting. The vegetables and salads will not grow without water, so that's where I am off to now.
