Flying

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated with machines. Steam Locomotives, Diesel locomotives, and Aircraft. In my early teens, the fascination with aircraft took precedence over everything else, and has been with me ever since. I remember watching the Red Arrows & Nimrod at the Prestwick Airshow in the mid 80s, and watching Concorde crew training from our front window. I remember thinking “I really want to do that”.

However, a number of factors meant I never really did anything about that, In fact, I never actually flew as a passenger on an aircraft until I was 20. However, in 2003 that all changed.
