8. 1 Unfortunately, I wore glasses. The Royal Air Force wouldn’t consider anyone for pilot training unless they had perfect eyesight. Halfway through an aptitude test, they realised that my eyes were far from perfect. I didn’t stand a chance. 2 It was an obvious choice. It’s just twenty minutes’ drive from my home. It’s very quiet, too, so the £90 per hour for the training is spent flying in the air, not waiting on the ground for other planes to take off. 3 It took me a whole year to get my private pilot’s license. It started well, with my first solo flight coming after just seven hours. Then came all the studying, the exams, the hard work. I never thought I’d get to the end of it. 4 Then came last winter and the end of the course was in sight. 5 Strong winds, heavy rain and even snow and ice made flying conditions extremely hazardous. 6 But finally the first of three practical exams arrived – the navigation test. The examiner sets you a course that you have to plan according to the weather, and then fly with him sitting beside you. 7 I passed this test, but I don’t know how. 8 The important thing is to give the right messages to the air-traffic control people and understand their replies. 9 After this alarming episode, the exercises in the flight-handling test were simple. As we complete the sixth exercise, the examiner suddenly turned to me and said, ‘Congratulations – you’ve passed!’ 10 I wasn’t sure why, because we usually land as slowly as possible. Then I turned round and realised straight away: we were being followed by a British Airways jumbo jet! A. A week which we had set aside for finishing the course came and went with no possibility of getting in the air at all. And besides the problems with the weather, my second son was born, and that made it even more difficult to find the time for lessons and studying.
