After setting the record at Pune, we went to Mumbai again.As I wrote before ,I had become a STAR in the school. Everyone appreciated me for the great feat that I had completed ,I was in the same STAR mood for at least a week……then later I started missing my glider and its flights on the high mountains in Pune!!! But this time I wanted a change, so I asked my father to take me to my native place PANCHGANI as I had seen many foreigners flying with their gliders on Harrison Folly-The second best sight in the world for flying & so even I used to feel that at least once I should fly from my native place,so my father agreed to take me to Panchgani ,bunking the schools………hurray!!!
MY FIRST FLIGHT FROM MY NATIVE PLACE………
I reached to Panchgani the very next day. The whole journey I was just thinking- FLYING FROM MY OWN VILLAGE!!! THE PLACE WERE MY ALL ANCISTERS LIVED!!! WOW!!! it was 11:30 pm I slept for some time in the car and woke up when we reached on the sight of take off. As I got out of my car, I saw all foreigners and some tandom pilots flying & there were many people it. I started unpacking my glider, till the time, everyone came around me and asked for my age and my biodata, but when I told them about my record, everyone really got surprised….clicking photos, asking questions and all…but I was having fun!!! Later, I took my glider on the take off point. The sun was burning!!! The conditions were thermic!!! actually , at that time ,I never knew the meaning of “THERMAL” so I never understood the risk in flying in the extreme thermic conditions, all pilots came to warn me about the conditions .But who cares about some things which you don’t know about!!! [but now I know what are thermals and how dangerous they are !!! they can take you above the clouds and in some conditions also directly to the heaven] I just took off and straight to Pasarni [the nearby village] for landing, but I never realized that I was above the HIGH VOLTAGE POWER CABLES.I clearly heard the very low noise of the cables it was such a noise that can’t be expressed in any type of alphabets from A to Z, but it sound quite dangerous . Later, I landed in tail wind. I WAS SAFE!!!
That was one of the most dangerous incidents in my life and later I had a really good story tell everyone.

PLEASE NOTE: PLEASE DON’T TRY TO FLY WITH ATTITUDE, IT MAY COST YOU, YOUR LIFE,PLEASE KEEP YOUR ATTITUDE ASIDE & ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR SENIOR PILOTS.
