FLYING SOLO ✦ Flying is in Cameron Bullock’s blood. You could say the sky’s the limit for this young man!
c "On his 15th birthday, Cameron Bullock became the youngest pilotin-command in Australia when he completed his first solo. Conditions were far from perfect with 8-10 kts from the north provided him with the challenge of turbulence and a slight crosswind. Regardless, Cam flew a tidy circuit and a beautiful smooth landing. Cam has worked very hard to get ready for this day, facing very early starts for his lessons, and practicing hard on his home flight simulator. We are all very proud of his efforts. Congratulations." - Ray Lind, Chief Flying Instructor with the Hastings District Flying Club.

rilliant-Online interviewed 15 year old Cameron Bullock on his first solo flight. Our Editor, Ben Tirebuck is piqued by Cam's enthusiasm. I’ve always personally had a huge admiration for pilots. I guess it goes back to when I first flew aboard a plane as a seven-yearold boy, from the UK to Spain for a family holiday. I remember being terrified – how on earth could this huge vehicle with all these people onboard possibly take off, let alone stay airborne in the sky for the two-and-a-half-hour journey,

Cameron Bullock wanted to fly from a very young age.
