Posted this on another flying site. So you may have seen it there. Saying I am a little excited is an understatement so worth repeating (at least for me). 172M
I got signed off on my BFR a couple of weeks ago and flew all by myself for the first time since 1993. Not perfect but considering only 7.8 hours logged including this flight in the last 20+ years I think they are alright (probably a little fast crossing the fence on a few). Been a long year I started loosing weight last June 17th and I have lost 85 pounds started taking lessons again and got the medical done in February and now have the BFR squared away. I just need to get some hours in and then hopefully by next year tailwheel endorsement possibly complex. Oh and of course figure out how to pay for all this. Here are a few videos (GoPro mounted on my hat) if your bored and need something to do. Sorry I can't embed spending my money on flying. Last landing of the day Touch and go Another but pretty much the same ETA: The stall horn on this plane is not working. |

Neighbor of ours has one and they look like fun little planes. |

Looking forward to some more 140 pics! |

The bird I flew yesterday, today and tmw as 50 hours on it. How do you like the speed increase? It wants to fly fast all the time. Vh rolling slick a couple weeks ago at sea level was like 170 knots. They all have a fresh coat of paint and new transmissions, but the rest of the guts, mainly the APU and ECS parts are old delta refurbs, and an absolute maintenance nightmare. Worked out most of the bugs on our birds, but other than that, it will be nice being able to keep up with the chinooks... ;) |
