My 1st flying lesson - Part 3

Now these are the final photos of my first flying lessons.

It all took about half an hour, but a time that was most memorable. Im grateful to have had this amazing experience and it’s great even just for the once.

I always wanted to see it from a pilots point of view and this was now fullfilled.

#1 Looking down at Brown’s Island

Looking through the window you can see the plane is on an angle

Wow! Breathtaking view!

#7 Further in

A river view

Some homesteads on farmland

"Any fool can fly!" Landing is the art of flying, my Dad said that to me.

Here is the return to Ardmore airport, there is a cross wind so you come at an angle, I did not land the plane but the trainer landed us safely.
