Great morning, Brock added five more flights to his logbook. So far he stayed on his feet every time, he had two perfect takeoffs – the other once were good enough. Hoping for eight flights tonight
Brock has managed his first solo this morning and I added another flight after that to his logbook. We had a beautiful morning with gentle breeze, sunny, just perfect conditions. The first takeoff took about 10 tries, That is prettythat is pretty common for a beginner. Eventually it happened, great takeoff, no issues whatsoever. Second takeoff was on the first try! Brocks voice did not show any signs of stress on radio. He landed on his feet both times. Then he got rid of her adrenaline rush afterwards, claiming that his legs are shaking. Also quite common for a beginner. Congratulations Brock on your first solo flight and one more to your logbook
I have trained Kevin in 2016
The skills are not there yet…
Congrats Gary and completing remaining 7 flights tonight and getting her done!
I had a glorious flight this morning. Flew from my home airport CYSN, Saint Catherine’s airport, to see CLB2 the home of UPAC Association and friendly owners Ed and Cathy. The flight took about 45 minutes. I was planning to overfly Hamilton airport but it was quite busy and the radio tower did not give me permission to do so. They routed me around the control zone to the north. Zero landing options for about 15 min. Yikes. I think next time I’ll go around to the south. Lots of fields there.
Had an uneventful landing at UPAC headquarters. Texted my former student Robin who also got into ultralight airplanes flying and owns the same plane as I do, the CH70fun.
We had a coffee and muffin and then he decided to follow me back to Saint Catherine’s. We had a formation flight which was cool. I usually fly alone so this was nice change. I showed him my hanger and then he took of to go back. The air was too smooth, it was hands off both ways.
Caleb finished his course. He was super fast student. Pleasure to teach. He’s only 25 and young kids pick it up real fast. He’s calm and collected. He will be next Tucker Gott
