flying (+1.4 hours)

[nibot]

I started the day with a trip to the airport to fly an airplane. This was awesome. A perfect Spring day, it was a joy to spend the pre-noon maneuvering at an everything-looks-like-a-model-train-set altitude, S-turns over interstate 55, turns around a point (a stand of trees), rectangular courses, and touch-and-goes (the field shared with a maneuvering blackhawk helicopter, callsign: mojo).

total: 9.4 hours dual

Tobin joins the downwind at 45, turns base for runway, and turns final, he touches and goes turning crosswind @ 300ft AGL.

You're moving right along! Some time around 10 hours dual was when I first starting thinking "I guess I'm really actually committing to this flying thing..." :D

It's fun to share the field or pattern with the big guys.
