|  Some Silly Random Shots... The 172SP Panel with an instrument student lost and confused...  I really should be teaching him how to keep the plane right side up, but I'm busy taking pictures!!! It's great having students under the hood...he didn't know I was taking pictures!!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]      [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

I like waiting until we're in the couds and having them take the hood off. First time freaks 'em out!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] And this is still my first month!!

| Re: Some Silly Random Shots... Hey, alot of people hate them - but they're the only type of sunglasses I've worn for about the last ten years!!! Oakley's are horribly ugly to me, and nothing else really looks good! I don't subscribe to the "can't be a pilot without a pair" notion, but if you like something, wear it! |

| Re: Some Silly Random Shots... Had my instructor do the "Oh my God" thing while under the hood. It was immediately followed by "My controls," a dive to the left and "take your hood off, you need to see THIS." There was an ATA Aztec that about flew RIGHT through us from the right side. We were just outside the Class D at ORL heading to the practice area, too. |

If my instructor would have did that, he would be pushed out of the plane!!!!!! Well, I would have found another way to get a payback [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] those are some great pics, looking back I wish I had taken more pics while I was doing my private and now my instrument. |

| Re: Some Silly Random Shots... I have two shots from my first cross-country down to Shenandoah Regional. Wish I had taken some on the way down, gorgeous September afternoon with no haze. Got two shots coming back, the altitude we were flying at was right with an upcoming thin cloud layer, instructor asked if I wanted to go above or below it . . . of course ABOVE! Felt like an airline up higher with a blanket of clouds underneath and clear skies above . . . also felt like I was going A LOT faster having something closer to compare my relative motion to. |

| Re: Some Silly Random Shots... Lloyd, great pics. How does a student get lost, though, with that nice moving map display? Windchill: I used to fly in & outta Shenandoah in the 1900. Great lil airport. |

| Re: Some Silly Random Shots... Nope, when I was flying the 1900 at Mesa / Air Midwest we went in there from PIT. Not sure who does it anymore. |
