woo, just came back from night flying for the second day in a row, its kinda crazy working hours, going to work at 9.30 in the morning and then getting back around midnight everyday, its only been 2 days, but the customary beer after flying is nuts, i barely have time to prepare for next day's flight as well as getting enough rest, flying 2 day sorties tml, both are advanced aerobatics, gosh, life's really getting fugging busy now, the weekends are becoming more and more hard-earned.. and i've flown like.. 15 times in 2 weeks, just barely surviving now.. haha, on another lighter note, night flying's real fun though, the 1st night was kinda nuts cos of the high level cirrus clouds and smoke due to controlled burning ard the place, so basically it was quite dark and visibility wasnt really good.. i was honestly quite scared for the 1st time in ages, but today the sky was clear and with the moon almost at full illumination, it was so fun and enjoyable.. watching the whole sky full of stars, seeing the distant perth city full of bright lights and small towns with their lights, airfield lightings, roads, gosh, the view is really breathtaking, BUT, flying's still crappy at night.. need to get used to it.. haha, wont be flying at night anymore for this week, but next week i might go night solo.. wooo, now thats scary.. haiz, getting less and less time to go online, oh well, greater sacrifices have to be made, at least i'm going to be on course to go home in 2 months time!! haha, 37 more events to go!
