Description
As you may have noticed on the rest of the website, I always had a special interest in aviation. This started at an early stage in my life. I'm not sure what did it for me, but I always knew that I wanted to become a pilot. At the age of about 4, I saw the Italian Aerobatic Team 'Frecce Tricolori' for the first time. I was rather scared when the aircraft flew low and fast over my head; however I was very impressed and fascinated. I soon developed a dream of becoming a fighter-pilot and flying the fast jets.
. So I started thinking about becoming a commercial pilot or Air-Traffic Controller, since those were the only options that I had. However, as time went by, and I attended the yearly air shows in
, it became clearer for me that I wanted to fly the fast jets, and would do whatever it takes to fulfil my dream. It became more of a call rather than just a dream. At the age of 16, I started flying radio-controlled model aircraft and quickly logged over 1500 hours in about 2 years. Fortunately, my dad was into it as much as I was, so he took me flying them every day, and I was soon flying the fast jet-models. Flying models gave me a great understanding of aerodynamics in practise and I found out that I had talent for flying, so I was willing to take the next step.
