Following my week with Glenys in April, I had another week in Telefomin with Mathias in May. The purpose was threefold:
- continue checking me into new areas and new airstrips
- finalise my advanced airstrip check
- annual VFR proficiency line check
This was quite an ambitious plan, but we made it work!
I also stayed on for the weekend and another couple of days to consolidate before heading back to Hagen.

Great flying, take-offs and landing videos! Thanks. Trust the camera can handle the bud splashes ;-) Well done, Bridget!
