Nice rides I got to drive :)
Here are a few pictures of the cars I could try out and drive on last saturday evening and on sunday all day.Very nice cars, crazy accelerations, and my friend is quite good at driving sport cars, so he gave me some tips on how to better (faster) drive these wonderful toys on countryside winding roads. ( cars are : -Lotus Elise ; - KTM Xbow)

Nice Week End, Plane & race cars : good mix !
This Week-End was the Airfield Open Day. Lots of people came and lots of them wanted to go up for introrides in the gliders. That means I had a lot of towing to do, which is great news for me.A friend of mine also came from Toulouse with a Caterham car, and I got to try it and drive it !!!! Really nice toy ! 175HP for 500kg

Quick update

Moving to South-West France.
On sunday, I'm moving to my new location in South-Western France near the Pyrenees Mountains.My new task there is to be a tow pilot for a glider club, and hopefully I can fly a lot for free ! I need these flight hours to be ready for hiring when the airlines will figure out that they suddenly lack a lot of pilots after the recent lay-offs (or so I hope).My plane is gonna be a Morane Saulnier Rallye MS89, 180HP. I've never flown that type yet, I'll tell you how it feels soon.Here is a picture of that plane from the gliders club website :
