The ride of a lifetime!

For mum's 30th birthday (back in August last year) Sam, Drew, Hamish and Isabella gave mum what she thought was the ride of a lifetime..... a vintage tiger moth joy flight!
When arriving at the air force base and taking our first look at the TIN plane.... mum got a few butterflies in her belly. Thankfully Sam neglected to tell mum that only a month earlier this thing had flipped over on landing!!
Dressing for the occasion.... it was going to be cold!
Mum taking a big deep breath before taking her position in the front of the plane. Just after realising that it was the young good looking dude that was the pilot and not the older and more distinguished gentleman! Boy, what was she getting herself in for?
Head gear on and......
ready to go!
Mum thought the ride was amazing! The tinny plane took her for a ride right over the top of Williamstown then back to Werribee before rolling into some aerobatics.....literally! I think she was heard at some stage saying that she could be seen doing a lot more of this in the future!!
Thank you Sam, Drew, Hamish and Isabella x
