Debrief 20090801

The first post of a newly rated Private pilot single engine land! I passed! Real good day. Niel broke 1000 hours today too! I was in the room when he calculated it out! Cheers to us both! Two milestones in one day.
Today was also my two year anniversary with my lovely girlfriend Kendra!
Anyway, the oral part was grueling, the flying part wasn't bad. If anyone reading this wants to get rated, I have advice. KNOW YOUR SYSTEMS, METARS, WEATHER, AIRSPACE, AND EVERYTHING ELSE YOU CAN POSSIBLY KNOW INCLUDING WHERE TO FIND THE INFO IF YOU DON'T KNOW!!!!
I gave my first skyride today! To my best friend and neighbor who's been like a brother to me. We went up for almost an our. 0.9 hrs. The plane now has 2.1 hours left before the 100 hour inspection which it goes for tomorrow. Hopefully it'll be done by monday. That's what the guy working on it plans to do...but we can't help if something's broken...but then again the plane works just as good as she ever did...however I did find a yellow moth which I mistook as a dandelion in the stall horn!
So ends this blog, but so begins another!!!!!
My last post will be the link for my new blog...look fast!

OVER AND OUT
