Better Landings

Since getting back into the cockpit again after almost a year, my flying has been getting better and better.  I really noticed this when I went flying Sunday.  My landings and overall flying were better and smoother than they’ve really ever been.  I was quite pleased with how things went.

The flight was pretty easy going.  Three landings in the pattern, the first making use of some side slipping, one being a short field, and then Steve was out again to have me go flying on my own.  I flew north to the Battleground VOR before making my way back for two solid landings at home.  The ride to and from the VOR were turbulent, but I handled the plane great and stayed on the right heading both ways.
