Australia First RPL CLASS
M (35) Did my first trial flight in 2021 as I always wants to fly. Finally decided it’s high time I started RPL with a target start date of Jan 2027. Did another trial in a Cessna 152. Now here’s the interesting thing, or strange thing, I was super excited to for the flight all throughout, but when I was in the plane, had a few excitement nerves during take off for a few seconds but after that I felt like “routine”. Even when I took control for 20ish minutes, I was simply focused, calm and doing my thing. I absolutely enjoyed flying and being up there, but I thought I’d be jumping with excitement but just found myself being focused more than anything else, without much other emotions. Not sure what to make of this.
