Australian pilot first licenced in 1994 following instruction from Chris Brandon and in recent years, Peter McClean of Yarrawonga Flight training. Two of the best instructors in Australia without a doubt. Initially flew an Airborne "Buzzard" with later upgrades to an Airborne Edge and now, an Airborne XT912 Arrow. I fear thermals - probably due to being a former commercial hot air balloon pilot.
Best flying experience was joining the Megafauna 2014 to Broken Hill.
