Flying Lessons 3

As you may recall, I was taking some flying lessons with my instructor Herr Kranfel. The newest plane of the KenAir fleet was waiting at St. Martin Airfield.

This shouldn't be that bad, looks like a small plane.

Looks much bigger inside. Yes, very spacious indeed.

And off we go and we are up in the air. The Herr Kranfel decided to just hand over the controls to me, so I can learn how to fly this new plane. I mean just like this without even a practice flight?

He said, the controls are basically the same as the plane you already have flown. So, go for it.


Does it suppose to fly upside down like this? I think I am in trouble here. How do these controls work again?
Needless to say Herr Kranfel had to take over several times or we would have crashed into the cold Blake Sea.

KenAir


There were several technical difficulties with the flying lessons today. Most of the training fell into the water due to grid crash, so I cannot count any of these hours towards my training.

But good news, KenAir now has a hangar on Frasier Island at SCS Airport.

Busy working

I am sure the boss won't mind me updating my blog.


Hope you stop by the hangar and explore the airport a little.

Flying Lessons 2

A new day and back to the review of knowing what controls to push and when....well almost.



This time the flight is at night with KenAir and Herr Kranfel is ready to let me copilot or is he? 
No wait, I can do this...this button or this one?

I don't think it took off the ground until Herr Kranfel took over the controls.
Not sure if he was tired from the flight or was he frustrated because the plane did not take off. I know it could not have been me, even-so he had to explain it several times.
