2018 - AN EXCITING YEAR

Learning on the bunny hill is normal before moving to triple black diamonds. If you start on the diamonds you will learn much slower, and the instructor pilot will have to intervene much earlier when things start to go bad. A Junior is plenty good enough to get your Silver C in (I did) and the Poles have flown 300 km tasks in them, so Gold should be on the cards with a portable oxygen system installed. One of ours went to Edensoaring as part of last year's expedition and those flying it had a ball.
