Gone A Month? Go Practice Landings!
Since my flight to McMinnville, I haven’t flown a lick. In between last flight and this one, I decided to take a couple weeks and go to Spain. What a trip! Well, with a month being away, I decided that doing a few practice landings and getting back in the air was much desired.
