Hi, I've forgotten about my blog for a while, but a lot of exiting things have happened since last time.

First, I've actually flown an airplane!(not solo) It was really fun and I cannot wait for the next time I'm in the air.

Second, my summer holiday has begun.

Third, I've been on a little trip today to look for a crashed airplane (Douglas DC-47) somewhere in the woods, with no luck. But it was very nice weather.

I've also decided to go for a Ultralight license, an ultralight aircraft is an aircraft which weighs less than 450 Kg, or 500 Kg if fitted with floats. The UL-License is much cheaper, so it is a better choice for me. I think that it is sad that we don't have a "microlight" class in Finland, for planes that weigh under 265 Kg (I think) and that don't require a license to fly.

Lastly, I've been thinking of buying the instructions for the Affordaplane (http://www.affordaplane.com/) - which is a plane that you build yourself, and which looks like the cheapest alternative of a homebuilt aircraft to me. I've looked at the Air-Bike and Legal Eagle too, but their instructions are too expensive for me.
