Well done RobW
All private pilots of whatever type; be it hot air balloon [e.g. 1780s Montgolfier brothers] or gliders
Otto Lilienthal and
Percy Pilcher and powered fixed wing (Wright Brothers etc), rotary
Igor Sikorski and others like the more modern
Rogallo hang-gliders and later, weight-shift microlights. And paramotor, powered-parachute (etc) pilots have done just what you have; it's an achievement not to be sniffed at.
Humans have been on this planet for many millenia
, and only in the last 130 years or so have we really mastered the air.
You are one of them, so well done
.
