Even though I love aircraft of all desriptions I hate(scared) flying.I flew for the first time last year to Spain from Newcastle and hated it, we were delayed because they had trouble closing one of the doors.Also had too divert and fly around a thunder storm.The pilot made sure he told us all this which I rather he kept to himself, we had a very rough landing dew too the heat coming off the ground. I was the only one strapped in for the full flight... Here are some pictures I took....

I was about 7 years ago, not now it cost too much money. However if those 6 numbers come up i quite fancy a YAK-52.

You could always sell one of your kidneys to pay for further lessons! Most evocative aeroplane I've flown in? A Dragon Rapide. When the passenger door flew open 30 seconds or so after take-off, I didn't even bat an eyelid, I was enjoying the experience so much! Noisiest aeroplane I've flown in? A Mi-8 helicopter. Damned thing also felt like it was going to shake itself to bits in the process....

I hate flying with a passion, i used to like it until i experienced a bad flight back from Ireland, about 10 years ago. Up until that point i was fine.

Hmmm, i have a feeling it might of involved the odd pint or two of Guinness ;D ;D. Seriously though turbulence can be a right pain especially in a light plane. I remember on one of my lessons it was rather bad. i done quite well not to be sick.
