  • My friend Adrian Burgess took me up in the Vans he has a share in for my first ever aerobatic experience. We mounted cameras on both wings as well as in the cockpit to capture the range of faces we pull while pullin' Gs! I hope you enjoy riding along as much as I did.

    A full-windscreen view of the ground is something most pilots really don't want to see.

    Happy days! Used to do aerobatics in Chipmunks out of Woodvale when I was in the ATC cadets. One Summer camp at RAF Chivenor ( Hunter Conversion Unit at the time ) One pilot in the air experience flight, giving air cadets flights in a Chipmunk, used to go up the coast out of sight of the airfiled and chase Seagulls !!!. He let me do a loop.... still alive so I must have done OK LOL :-)))

    Hi Rory, I had a 1 hour trial flight with Chris this morning in Oscar Alpha. Loved every minute of it. I know you're not an instructor but some of the stuff I have picked up from your channel proved invaluable -eg - I didn't hoik the stick back as soon as I got hold of it. I did wander a bit but not too much for a first timer I don't think. Also, I took on board from your vids how sensitive the controls are. Even so, I was amazed at how sensitive they really were, you don't feel as if you're moving them at all. Thanks for the good tips mate. It was always going to be a good experience for me, but stuff I pcked up from your channel undoubtedly made it so much better. Cheers Rory.

    • @RoryOnAir
      @RoryOnAir  Před 5 lety

      Ian Livsey ah that’s fabulous Ian - I’m absolutely delighted you enjoyed it. Chris is great as are Marcus, Tony and David at Mainair. I’m really pleased you found some of my videos useful. You should try the C42 as well as see which you prefer. Hiring one is easier as there are 3. Are you going to take up lessons?

    • @ianlivsey7200
      @ianlivsey7200 Před 5 lety +1

      I'm definitely going to do another one to try the C42. I'd love to take up lessons but financially, it would be very difficult. It would mean I pretty much have to give up beer, which is another love of my life lol. I'll have a go in the Ikarus and do some serious thinking about it. BTW, I also met Tony this morning and he seems like a great bloke.

    • @RoryOnAir
      @RoryOnAir  Před 5 lety

      Ian Livsey sounds like a good idea, at least then you’ll have experienced both types. Tony is fab - great instructor. I know it’s not cheap but a lesson a week is enough to keep your learning rate up and I think the more you fly the less you’ll miss the beer!

    • @ianlivsey7200
      @ianlivsey7200 Před 5 lety +1

      Job done. Second flight paid for. It was my intention to try the C42 but for some reason, I feel like I want to do the Eurostar again! What do you think

    • @RoryOnAir
      @RoryOnAir  Před 5 lety

      Ian Livsey great stuff Ian. I think it would be no bad thing to try the C42 at this early stage. You may prefer it and if you leave it too late you’ll be better doing all your training before changing aircraft.
