what a thrill

Yesterday I fortunate enough to go on a joy flight in a Trojan T-28
this came about as DH Ken won it as a prize in a raffle, he was not at all well so couldn't fly...
disappointing for him ... however for me......  it was awesome .....
I soo enjoyed the 20minutes in the air at about 41/2 thousand feet over the ranges and surrounding areas in Toowoomba ...
I was so excited I left my camera on the ground .... so no pics from up there in the wild blue yonder



 
 
meet Matt, my pilot
after we landed I wanted to go straight back up again     I just loved it ...... so now have another burning desire to fly in another vintage plane .....
thankyou to AEROTEC Toowoomba for the opportunity & thank you to Matt my pilot... see you again
