I went flying today. Hadn’t been in a while really – not as pilot in command.
I was wondering if I could still do it. It’s not the basics – it’s remembering what to do in an emergency. And quickly. No time to try to remember.
I went with the CFI who put me thru my paces. Steep turns. Power off stalls. Power on stalls. Turning stalls. Slow flight.
Simulated engine out landings. Soft field landings. Short field landings.
Steep approaches.
All was pretty good. I got some pointers. Each time, my knowledge goes deeper.
It was fun. I sure like knowing how to fly
