Thanks for the encouragement! The flight could not have been better. Gorgeous day with light winds. Flying out of Centennial, Colorado from KAPA. Snow on the mountains and smooth air. Learning to drive with your feet on taxi with the free catering nose wheel takes some getting used to. At least I had some experience with differential braking for the Oliver tractors on my grandfather's farm years ago. Got to do the take-off (what a rush!), fly out to the practice area and practice turns, ascents, and descents. Bill I can totally see how the globose loves to float down the runway on landing! Such an amazing feeling finally doing something you have dreamed for so many years! My instructor was great as well. Needless to say I am hooked! Hoping to get at least two more lessons in this coming week. thanks again for the kind words of encouragement.
