PPL before ATP

Solo'd last night. 4.5TT. Beat ya. Neener neener neener! hehe.

Just kiddin bud. I actually have 29.5 hours from 1993-1994. It really helps.

Sounds like you are progressing well. 10feet off the ground? Yikes. My original instructor did that to me. I thought we were going to hit a cow.
 
I tell you what. Being in an airplane is so surreal. I respect it but for some reason I don't fear being in one. The best part is when we pull some G's. I think I would like aerobatics but that's not my goal.

The weird part is I used to be afraid of heights and I hated roller coasters. I do get freaked out being 20 feet off the ground but not 50 and up.

Flying is great! Hope to solo at 11 hours next week.
 
Day 7. Today went up and continued working the traffic pattern. Did about 5 touch and goes. Learned how to slip on the approach. Good stuff. Discovered that scaring the CFI on purpose is quite fun. Turn about is fair play. The CFI turned the engine to idle and I had to land. We didn't die. So that is always I good thing.

8.6 Hours. Hope to solo on Thursday.
