World’s Best Paper Airplane

I’ve been looking around on the internet for good paper airplane designs. That’s what I spend most of my study hall’s doing: flying paper airplanes. I finally came across a site with a really cool design. Continue reading ‘World’s Best Paper Airplane’

New Lesson

Finally! I’ve found a day that is expected to be sunny! I am super psyched to fly! I’ve been grounded for a while now and am not liking it one bit. On the 22nd I am scheduled to meet with Johnny from 16:00 to 19:00. I have my favorite plane, N43020, from 17:00 to 19:00. I’m not sure what we will be working on but it really doesn’t matter. All that matters is that I’ll be flying!!! Thanks for reading everyone.

Next Lesson

My next lesson is when this dumb spring weather goes away.  I’ve been trying to schedule a lesson for the past 2 weeks now with no luck.  I’ve looked at the forecast for the area, and there is either supposed to be heavy rain and thunderstorms or mostly cloudy skies.  I’m going to keep trying, but at the rate I’m at now, I won’t fly until June.  We’ll see though.  Anyway, thanks for reading!!!

Cancelled

As you’ve probably guessed, today’s lesson was canceled due to a few low clouds and some wicked wind.  I’m looking for a good date to reschedule but I can’t really find one.  I’ve been using the Weather Channel also to find a nice date, but unfortunately it looks like rain for the next two weeks.  One I have a better lookat the weather comming up, I’ll reschedule the lesson and let everyone know.  Thanks for reading!!!

Weather and Tomorrow

I just called the Lockheed FSS for the first time ever for an outlook briefing for tomorrows flight.  The man helping me was actually quite helpful.  He got me a few forecasts for the Northern Illinois area and explained them quite well.  Based on the forecast he gave me, tomorrow will probably be called off.  The forecast calls for winds at 13 knots gusting to 26 knots, rain clouds at 4,000 feet, and  rain showers in the vicinity of the airport; definitely not good conditions for a student pilot.  However, he did also say that the prediction ended at noon tomorrow so there is still a chance!  Let’s pray and hope for a nice day tomorrow.  Thanks for reading!!!
