Well, not quite up to the standard of all you old hands, but I had my TIF today.
I don't think it's supposed to be an official lesson but the instructor will count the hour on my 'card'.

It was in a Beechcraft Skipper but I'm too big for the liitle fella' so (when I pass my medical - fingers crossed) I'll be in a Beechcraft Sundowner.  ;D ;D ;D ;)

I cried because I had no shoes - until I saw a man who had no feet.

I started out in power and then went to gliders.  I still fly both.  My first flight was in a C152.  It was a perfect day, clear, warm and sunny, no terbolence.  Lately the weathers been crappy.  My first glider flight was in a 2-33.  It was a decent day, and I remember being intimidated by not having an engine.  The one thing I love about powered flight is, that if you mess up your landing you can always go around!   ;)
