Flying, flying & more flying

I’ve been flying a lot lately, which is really good. I have about 10 hours as of today. My last lesson ended well with a pretty good landing that I made. Before that, we’ve been practicing landings and they haven’t been easy. I was getting a little frustrated until I made a pretty good landing to end our last lesson. My friend Ben was in the back when I went up, and he seemed like he enjoyed himself for the most part. It’s been really fun though. The most exhilarating experience so far was flying to San Luis Obispo Airport (SBP) and landing at a towered airport, which those of you who don’t know, Paso Robles Airport is not. It was beautiful flying back because it was near night and you could see all the lights from below. I hope I can reach my goal to get my Private Pilot License by Christmas.

Flying day!

Today my dad, Mel, her brother and I went to Paso Robles airport to go to the Airshow they were having. There was a stand there for a new flight training school that just opened up in July. We talked to the flight instructor and he was offering an introductory flight for $50.00, which is the basic price for any flight school. I didn't think, though, that I would be able to have another introductory flight since I've all ready had one in Monterey. He said I could so I was able to go up and fly with Mel!!

He treated it more like a flight lesson rather than an introductory flight since I had a good knowledge how to fly. We spent a little bit over a half hour up there and I was able to do some basic maneuvers and also talk to traffic. It was an awesome day. It fueled my desire to fly that much more.
