PPL accomplished!


Recommended Posts

X-C portion westward into the blinding setting sun, waiting for my turn in the pattern while everyone and their brother (fixed-wingers, gyros AND helis, jeesh!!) tried to get home before dark, one guy flyin' around with no radio and everyone trying to avoid him, shooting autos to the little red light on the wind sock 45min after sunset, slopes in the dark with the beloved, mesmorizing landing light. Yay. Was NOT my most relaxing flight experience, for SURE. :wacko: But I made it! Onwards and upwards!! Instrument and CPL, here I come!

:o Whoa! Sounds nuts. Did the dude get in trouble for no radio? Congrats!!!

 

Congratulations! Going to make all your next flights XC?

 

Sparker, you are only required to have a radio in Class A,B,C, and D airspace and it sounds like they don't have a tower.
