I haven’t written on here in forever but I am feeling a need to recently. Not because of things with my pilot but because of my own pilot-ness! I get to say that (sort of) now. I’ve recently begun flight lessons. It’s an exciting experience and one I’ve been looking forward to for awhile now. It took me forever to convince the boyfriend it was a good idea and not a waste of money (talk about loving what you do?). But I planned it all out and bucked it up and scheduled a lesson. That was in the beginning of February. It was suppose to be end of January but the weather had other plans for me.
My first flight lesson was wonderful. I did most of the flying and it was fun and addicting! I wanted to learn as much as I could. I read a bunch before the flight and afterwards and I couldn’t wait to get up in the air again. But again the weather had other plans and just recently got back up in the air. Doing steep turns feel so weird but it’s great. Being in control is so fun. It’s a freeing experience.
In my second lesson, we also did my first stall. Something I wasn’t looking forward to at all, but it wasn’t too bad. I understand what I’m reading a bit better now and ready to tackle them more for the third lesson. Sadly, which has to wait due to my instructors corporate job and my own vacation. I can’t wait to get serious about flying though.
