How I got to be a licensed pilot.

Apr 15, 2006 11:05

Here is the story of my checkride, a bit long, but it's all set out ...

I debated writing different versions one geared towards people familiar with aviation and another for people unfamiliar, but I think I'll just put the "pilot's version" here and say that if anyone has any questions about the terminology or what not, then ask.

( So there I was at 5000 feet ... )

Hey, thanks for putting that in writing. It brings back a lot of good memories. I thought for sure I would bust mine as I was very nervous, but After it was over, I can still recall that huge feeling of relief. (Of course, I had a 85 mile trip to fly to get back to my home airport, so I couldn't really unwind until I got back on the ground at my home airport...
Anyway congrats!
Todd

Have you dreamed of not tearing yourself away from soccer tranlsations even in a bathroom?
... Observing beautiful girls under the blanket at night?
... Keeping on watching the favorite movies lying in the yard?

Oh, Yes.

NOW YOU CAN!

Way to go. I can't wait to start again. I quit about 15 years ago and HAVE to get back into it.

I was in VEGAS fri till yesterday and it looks like you have more bad days than good days with the wind and the heat. I began flying in West Texas and a 20knot crosswind is an everyday thing.
