Cross Country Solo Complete!

Postby Al_Fallujah » Mon Nov 03, 2008 10:07 pm

I have been moving right along. Cross Country solo is complete.
I am working on the basic intrumentation and night flight.  Little bit of hood time.  With any luck, this should be wrapped up before I carve the Turkey.

Started at the school in Clermont, went to Lexington, KY, then Hillsboro, OH, and back to Clermont.

I69 -> LEX -> HOC ->I69. 168NM total distance.
With the landings and taxi/wait time, it took 2.8 hours start to finish.

Did the three full stop landings at LEX.

I like the Clermont County airport. Its the home to Sporty's if anyone has ever had to order aviation supplies, you have probably heard of them.

And no I did not get lost.

Did get a little off course on the final leg, but caught it fairly quick.
That was the shortest leg, so it was an easy correction.
