How it all started ....

In September 2002 my wife, Adele, bought for my 36th birthday a trial lesson in a light aircraft at Multiflight at Leeds Bradford Airport.

After going on my trial flight I was Hooked !!! and I just wanted to go again and again.

After just 14 months I passed my skills test on the 27th of November 2003. I now had my Pilots Licence.

After visiting air shows across the country and been to a member of the LAA, meeting fellow pilots and seeing what they have achieved in the home built aircraft, then further inspired by Mark Evens, the presenter of A Plane Is Born, I decided it was time I had a go at building my own plane...
