Flying with Hoovers




Last weekend I had the privilege of taking my in laws for a flight around Spokane. It was a beautiful sunny day and we all had a good time. Thanks for coming along :)

Why it is fun to take a pilot with you to a corn maze


Or if you just want to cheat...

Flying with Steve





Sometimes we can stow away in the back of an airplane during someone else's lesson. Thanks for the flight Steve.

Wrapping up the year






This is the last week of flight for me for 2007. These are some shots I have taken in the last week or so flying around Washington, Idaho and Montana.

Commercial


The last several weeks, I have been working on the first stage of my commercial test. To become a commercial pilot you must pass a written exam, a six hour oral exam and a flight exam. I have passed the written and the first stage of the flying exam. It has been a lot of fun so far and I feel much more confident as a pilot. At the same time, it is mind boggling to think about how much more there is to learn.
