Fb, Instagram, and WhatsApp being down all day mean that the world is 1/365 in better mental health.

Supposedly, you can camp there too. Unfortunately, renting doesn’t make overnights practical with the minimum time charges. Plan on doing a camp out there when I get my own plane.

Yep. I was >2000ft above the ridges and was getting tossed around a little. I figured being a new pilot, I should wait for a better day. also 3.5 hours in a Tecnam P92 is exhausting!

Didn’t make it to Ingalls Field. A little rougher than I wanted. Made it to Shenandoah, then went toward ingalls before deciding to head back to Richmond. Had a 20kt headwind going out there so it took a while but at 6500 it was smooth and really nice flying Ended up putting in 3.5 hours in...

It is supposedly the highest airport east of the Mississippi. Right on top of the mountain. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got the day off so I'm going to go take a little cross-country flight to KSHD and then to KHSP. Going to enjoy a little time in the valley before heading back to Richmond. This is really the first cross country flight since I got my license. Everything else has been just sight-seeing with my...

There is one that is available to rent up near the DC area. Only one I know of. Plan is to buy one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I trained from the front seat. And yes, at 6’0” it’s very cramped. I got my ppl using a Garmin touch and was surprised when I flew the j3 that I really didn’t need all of that. I was able to know all I needed with airspeed, altimeter, and turn coordinator (and the seat of my pants) Sent from...

They certainly do!

He had a blast, and so did I! Let him fly a little and we did some steep turns and stalls (he's 16, 2 years older than my son would be, but they were best friends) and he ate it all up! I also greased the landing in a 7kt crosswind. Tailwheel training makes a difference!

Schedule changed and we are going up this evening! Better weather.

My son passed away 4 years ago at 9 (almost 10) from cancer so I never could take him flying (just got my ppl in June). However, his best friend came by the other day and we were talking and he wanted to go. His parents said okay and so we are going up tomorrow evening if the weather allows. I...

Yep, I agree. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had just got my ppl and so I think my brain is still in the learning mode and it might have helped me. My TW instructor said it’s different for everyone. He has had ATP pilots with thousands of hours take a long time and some get it in 5. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So stoked. Took me 7.5 hours. Had a swirling 5-7kt crosswind today, but I stuck my 3pt and my wheel landings. My instructor said “if your feet at working hard it’s because your hand isn’t in the right place”. So true. With a nose wheel there is so much you can get away with. Not with that cub...

Bumping this back up. I’ve got one in progress. Trying to get more stories in the hopper.

Go Tigers! Clemson is God's country.

They found a pilot. His plane is in annual and they are waiting.

Yes, it's been found, just trying to get it back to it's owner

Apparently the owner was on a trip and the dog got lost.
