Back home again

Well it was a stonker of a day - I'm really missing the full water in the glider but having a ball and learning heaps from some very excellent pilots. Th 5hr AAT was a challenge - the last turnpoint was 145 kms from home. Despite the results so far, I'm really happy with how things are going and the experience is amazing. The captain and crew are brilliant and keeping me laughing.

  1. Hey Jenny,
    Good day yesterday! Well done. It sounded a bit more like weather you are used to. It's tough going, but I bet you are learning heaps.
    Great team! Where did you pick up those guys from? The local pub? You must need your eyes checked... but tell Schmidty I love him.
    Cheers, Bruce T.

  3. G'day Jenny and Team,

    Great result for yesterday, bet that put a smile on your face :) Hope you have another fantastic day, use the water issue to your advantage: you'll be climbing faster, but will just have to be your usual clever self to run as far as you can!


    Believe in yourself
    And in your dream
    Though impossible things may seem
    Someday, somehow you’ll get through
    To the goal you have in view
    Mountains fall and seas divide
    Before the one who in her stride
    Takes a hard road day by day,
    Sweeping obstacles away.
    Believe in yourself and in your plan
    Say not ~ I cannot ~ but I can.
    The prizes of life will fail to win
    Because we doubt the power within.

  4. Great going Jenny, from the look of the photos you and the team are having way to much fun! The dining options seem a bit flash for the type of gliding comps we have here.
