Three cheers, up up and away! After the mounted flying lesson and WLM approval you can start flying around the weyr on your own. You & your lifemate get to run your own dragon taxi service! Elevator duty, up and down you carry passengers from ground to weyr level until you are blue in the face. There is an advantage to this - you can scope out all the nifty empty niches and ledges in the bowl. Look for where you want your weyr once you graduate. Please do /not/ leave the weyr until an escort is arranged to go with you, late in the week.
