Lucky number...12
Well it is officially summer down here in Kansas. In my opinion being less than an hour from Oklahoma we are far enough south to be considered south so yes it is summer in the south. This of course means it is hot, the high today was about 105. Thankfully though there was not much wind which was great for flying.
We spent the entire hour and a half flight "in the pattern" (flying around the airport) doing touch-and-go's. This just means we go around land and take off again. I ended up doing 12 of these and finally on the last one I had an almost perfect landing. Now I don't say that the other 11 previous were bad...just not quite there. As my instructor put it "you are doing great, you have not scared me and I haven't yanked the controls back." So I got that going for me.
The more I continue this the more excited I get to do more and be challenged more. Check back next week for another update!
