Ok, so hanging out & camping with other pilots is a great time. Number 1, no one sez we're boring for talking about flying.
On the flying skills side, it seems I've improved after the Pickett-Grooms experience. Last night I went up for a little night proficiency work along with testing autopilot repairs. My night vision was lousy and I had to ask tower to turn up the lights just so I could see the runway. Anyway, the landing was still smooth as glass as have been all my touchdowns since leaving 6Y9.
I don't know but maybe I've got to go back to 6Y9 every year for the real-life short field landing practice? Well, that's something I wanted to mention for future fly-ins. The mountain flying class at Windwood made me think that maybe a short-n-soft session at 6Y9 would be a good thing.
