    Stage 13.....Complete!

    Not anytime soon.... probably not ever really, i don't really have any desire to fly those. Its just a midway in-flight test per UND. I'm really hoping the weather stays nice so i can get my PPL by the first of the year, but thats asking a lot in the frozen plains.

    Finally logged some PIC time!!

    Well after 4 weeks of bad weather mixed with an ear infection and the flu i finally got back in the plane. Tuesday i had the option to solo but my confidence was not where is should have been so i didn't go. Today my CFI started out by saying "we are going to make 3 landings, 1 power off, and 1...

    Tips on landing flares
