It is a much further drive for me to Stanly County airport than it was to Concord Regional airport where I kept Maggie. So it was really strange to leave the house knowing I had a 1 hour drive and also that I didn't know what I was going to do. I just knew I wanted to fly. In retrospect I think what I wanted was to feel in command of the airplane. Affirm my ability to land as I wanted. Affirm my ability to handle an emergency. Affirm my ability to manage a stall, complete a steep on altitude, airspeed & heading. I wasn't actively aware of any of that before I got in the airplane. Sometimes, it's just good to do that thing that your passionate about. And figure out why after, if at all.
3:15 love the turnback! 7:20 I like the cut-edit style of this turn. 8:50 weird, I don't have to move my car when pushing into the hangar. 9:20 or sit on the ground. this is sorta the evolution of the 1dg private pilot maneuvers.
@@piperdakotaflyr I'm actually flying into FLd the last weekend of OSH but I'm going to visit with some family visiting from overseas who I haven't seen in 20+ years. So OSH will have to be next year. It is ironic that having grown up so close to Oshkosh that I've never been to the airshow.
