JMac24 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Well I did it. 20.8 hours. Instructor got out and I went and flew about 4 patterns. Holy cyclic forward when I didnt have the extra weight! Also a little squirly on the first hover taxi with a crosswind! I didnt like those feelings much at all! It was fun though. Had a FW doing touch and goes at the same time. Kinda funny making the call and staggering in with him everytime. I was landing on the Taxiway.....Tons of power avail too. Pretty much had to keep carb heat in the whole time as on the downwind I was always right round that magic 18. Got some good hover practice in alone as well waiting for 4 FWers to land before I could cross the runway to go park. All in all just what I thought! Started Aug 4th and Sept 11th was the first trip alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMac24 Posted September 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 (edited) Tons of fun. Today went out over the San Juan islands with my instructor. That was a blast, first cross country. Tomorrow more solo time but not just patterns I get to head out over the valley.
