Who am I?
I am a 17 year old Ra-aus Pilot Certificate holder living in Hong Kong, currently doing any flying I can in the Hong Kong Aviation Club working up to my Private Pilot Licence on Cessna 172S/R aircraft (Occasionally the odd 152 may come in).
I flew the Sling 2 iS light sport aircraft in Australia and after 38.1 hours I have completed my pilot certificate and became a licenced pilot. After returning to Hong Kong, I have become a member of the Hong Kong Aviation Club and currently I fly the club owned Cessna 172s in the weekends, when Shek Kong Airfield is open to the public, specifically for us leisure pilots. It's a real challenge flying in Hong Kong with the airspace and the ever-changing weather, but the club has a real passion and so does the instructors. I love flying, life's good!

| Cessna 172S Familiarisation over Tolo B-LUW |
I flew my first training flight here in Hong Kong on the 30th of October, and at the time I am writing this article it would translate to yesterday! I flew the "new" club Cessna 172S, registered as B-LUW. With her GPS, autopilot and electric trim disconnected it is really nothing other than a pure pilot's machine. No electric fancies, just you and your airmanship. That's what it is all about really!
So stay tuned for more of my flying adventures and until next time...
Have fun and fly safe!
