Every now and again I am reminded of my second flight lesson ever. The consummate professional, my instructor mechanically asked me at the end of my
lesson that day, "so, how was it?", to which probably 99.9% of new flight students respond with, "Awesome!", or some derivation thereof. But I, paralyzed by fear, did not respond in such a manner, and probably came off as ungrateful and arrogant.
My how things can change with a little perseverance!!!
I flew solo on Sunday morning (not the first time) and wow was it ever fun!
The flight was not even all that great in terms of my flying ability (ie. I have flown better on some other rare occasions), and yet, somehow, I couldn’t stop smiling in the plane and even after landing/parking the plane, when I came inside to return the keys and leave the airport.
I FLEW AN AIRPLANE. ALL BY MYSELF! And… it was FUN! :)))))
