VIDEO: MY FIRST FLIGHT

It was a cold winter day in January. A perfect flying temperature. I developed cold feet, literally and figuratively. This is the definition of irony: an aspiring pilot with a phobia for height.

I was excited about flying, yet terrified. I had nightmares the night before. What if I crash-land? Could we die today? I made sure I knew exactly where to find the emergency eviction switch in case the parachute was needed. Check. In place.

Prepared for take off, with a very broad grin on my face. Off I flew. I flew a few hours, did some stunts that made me feel like using the sick-bag. Then landed safely.

It was an awesome experience, I loved every nano-second of it.
I was born upside down. I crawled. I walked. I ran. I jumped. I flew, I fly.

Thanks for reading.
