In the Pilot's Seat and the Life Flight Air Ambulance

Being given instructions on how to fly the plane.

At Wings Over Wairarapa, Salem got to have a go sitting in a small plane and was told how the plane works and what all the controls were for.

Checking the wings.

He loved sitting in the plane imagining that he was in the air flying.

Then it was off to check out the Life Flight Trust Air Ambulance.
This is the Wellington based plane which looks like it has been all bandaged up.

Salem got to have a look inside and saw all the medical equipment that it has at the ready.
It was very impressive.
