Finally Flying Again
After more than a month since my last flight, I finally got up into the sky again today. It’s not like haven’t been trying, though, it’s just the weather around Chicago hasn’t been cooperating on the weekends. Luckily, since I had off of work today, I was able to schedule a plane and putz around a bit. My trusty Cessna 152 trainer, N64920, was the plane I flew.
I did a quick jaunt up to Burlington (BUU) just to land somewhere else, rather than run the pattern a few times at Westosha. The flight was uneventful, but it was definitely great to get flying again. I’m scheduled to fly tomorrow (Thanksgiving Day) with both my parents for the first time since earning my license. This practice helped make sure everything goes smoothly tomorrow!
This flight I logged 0.8 hours of flight time. Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
