The flight this Thursday was simply…no good. There were no crashes, there were no injuries, there was just a lot of flying that didn’t go to well by me.
Foggles…of course!
Flying through clouds is something that I’ll want to experience some day, but for now, I’m just going to stay clear of them clouds and instead enjoy the experience of my Foggles!
First Time Landing
Yesterday I accomplished one of the more important aspects of flying…landing!
Stability, Rectangular Courses, and Circular Turns
Yesterday involved a discussion of stability and spin recovery covered in ground school, followed by an introduction and run-through of few different ground reference maneuvers.
Fill ‘er Up
Yesterday afternoon I got to fly again and during this flight, I went over stalls and steep turns. When we landed I had my first experience filling up a plane with fuel. What an awesome day.
Practicing Maneuvers
Tuesday’s flight was canceled however Wednesdays ground schooling and Thursday’s flight made up for the loss.
September Begins…I think I’ll go fly
Today was my second lesson and my first in September. Thankfully it went much better than my first.
First Hour Done…with Cupcakes
Yesterday I had one of the most exciting times of my life. I got to take the flight controls of a Cessna 172 in the palm of my hands!
