went to topeka yseterday and completed another three hours of instruction. I was going to get instruction in a T-Bird but my instructor was having problems with the prop pitch which resulted in a couple of short hops around the pattern. He then got out his S-12 and we flew in that for the rest of the afternoon. On climb out during my first flight in the S12 my instructor began testub my abillities by covering up the altimiter and the ASI while asking me to perform climbing turns. Not suprisingly I did this flawlessly. I then spent the next 2 hours of flying performing takeoffs and landings. At the end of the day my instructor was very impressed with my abillities as he never had to touch the stick while I was flying!! As soon as I get my chute from BRS he will venture down to wichita and test fly my Eagle!!.
happy flying,
Chris

never run out of altitude airspeed and ideas at the same time
3 things that dont matter altitude above you runway behind you and the gas back at the hanger
takeoff is optional landing is mandatory
Fly only in the middle of the air, the edges are identified by buildings trees and houses, and it is much more difficult to fly there.
It is better to be on the ground wishing you were flying then flying and wishing you were on the ground!
