Default Re: SDFCVOH's Flight training thread.

First flight today on a complex. 172 Cutlass with RG. Nice plane! Didn't climb very well, but it was more fun to fly than the normal 172. Also, the whole adjustable pitch/manifold pressure deal is awesome. I don't want to fly the skyhawk anymore!

Flew over to North Vegas VGT to drop off the plane, then another timebuilder took us back to RYN. Amazingly McCarren didn't tell me to avoid class B, so I got to really fly the approach. Pretty fun, and slightly overwhelming, but I didn't miss any calls and it all went smoothly. Even had a chance to snap a photo from my phone over the strip!

Also, I remembered to put the gear down for landing. I felt like that was slightly important.
