Son's First Solo May 2022
Can you believe it? My how time flies... We've come a long way since our first video together showing him the traffic pattern in the sim. My son is 16 now and has been flight training in real life for about a month. He has about 8hrs of logged flight instruction at the time of this video. He's flying a Cessna 172N at Mid-Carolina Regional (KRUQ) where we are based. There is no doubt in my mind that the simulator has played a huge role in his quick progression. His Flight instructor says he's never seen someone this proficient this early in his flight training, and usually it's about 10-20hrs before students will solo. Enjoy!

This 2019 Father's Day weekend, we spent a day at Shelby-Cleveland Regional (KEHO) for a fun open house and fly-in event. It was probably the first time for the rest of my family to be so up close with small GA aircraft. There were airplane and helicopter ride fundraisers, as well as several GA planes to check out up close. It was a great way to spend Father's Day weekend. This video is a synop...
