    If I can get a flight for the weekend I would still go, even though I've lost a week of my holiday. It was supposed to be my birthday present for the end of the month so AS LONG AS IT'S SAFE I will go.

    Believe me, I was scared of flying before this....God knows why now. I really want to be sure everything is 100% before I get up there.

    It will be 100%. The pilot is at the front of the whole thing - he/she hits the hard stuff before you do, so he/she will make damn sure it's absolutely safe.

    Safe landing of test flight is positive - fingers crossed for Tuesday/Wednesday for them to start flying - hopefully :p

    The test flight was always going to land safely - if there was doubt they would have sent up a plane decked out with ejection seats and flown over the sea.

    Depends on your point of view - sometimes small is cramped...
