|  And then it came!! and now its gone... It was amazing. I always would watch the other pilots before i got into my training and just dream about being incharge of an airplane. From makin the radio calls to turning the aircraft lights on. It was a beautiful day in spokane, no wind, no clouds i couldnt have asked for better conditions. As i got my clearance to takeoff, it finally hit me. I gave it full throttle and hit the skies!! Even though i just stayed in the pattern for 3 stop and goes, it felt like much more in my eyes. Flying just went to the next level for me and i feel like i cant get enough of it. It all went perfectly. Thank you for the support!! |

Just watch out for the centerline lights on 3/21! I hit those the other day in a Beech Sport and I thought I lost about every rivet in the airplane.
