  • Train Tracks To Eugene with Evan

    Evan and I have been trying to line up a flight together for a while, so when I had an opening to go flying this Saturday, I hit him up and we decided on going flying following the train lines.  Since Evan is a big fan of trains and planes, he chose to have us […]

  • Mt. St. Helens with Melissa, Tomas, and Kristen

    I haven’t flown anyone this year (2016) and since the weather was so lovely outside, I booked a flight for Saturday, called up my coworker, and got the ball rolling to go flying. For today’s flight, I took my co-worker, Melissa, who is a former pilot (way more experienced than myself), but she hasn’t flown […]

St. Helens, and back.  Orion even got to take the controls […]

  • Columbia Gorge with Jeffrey, JJ, and Ilona

    Since Jeffrey had been out of town the last couple months, we had a talk a week ago about flying before he left again, and thankfully everything worked out to let us get in the air.  I tasked Jeffrey with finding some awesome people to join us and he selected JJ and Ilona which worked […]

  • 3 Sunny Birthday Flights

    To celebrate my birthday (4/18), I decided to do a flight each day of the weekend.  Friday, hitting up downtown Portland and the Gorge.  Saturday, heading to Tillamook for lunch, cheese, and jumping in the ocean.  With a final flight around Mt. Hood with a great finish through the Gorge on Sunday.  The weather this […]

  • Mt. Hood with Michael, Kent and Thomas

    Took friends Michael, Kent, and Thomas around Mt. Hood. Unlike the times before, this time I went south first and finished going through the Gorge. The conditions were amazing. Highest altitude yet.

  • Attempt Soloing At Troutdale (#2)

    My last flight was around the middle of last month and I finally flew again yesterday making my second attempt to fly solo at Troutdale.  The winds looked good and I was ready to fly…so I thought.
