As usual, I took a picture on my walk around a neighboring village. The village is near the airport so this is a great spot to watch planes in the sky because they fly very low here. The sky was clear without clouds and the view was unique. I did a little browsing of aviation history and found out that Edward Rusjan was the first Slovenian airman. He first flew on November 25, 1909, with a double-wing aircraft of his own construction, which he built with his brother Joseph Rusjan. This may seem a bit small compared to the results in the US and France at the time, but it should be borne in mind that the Russian brothers were both planners, constructors and pilots at the same time.

Glad to see that most people are not afraid of flying. I am one of these who are.
I think everyone has some fear
At 60 years I went for my 1st flying lesson at Ardmore airport and loved it, I just don’t have the money to do the whole course and become a pilot.
Even in our country, learning to fly is very expensive. Few can afford this learning.
Beautiful sky and I like this plane. The Wright brothers invented flying in New Zealand in 1903, but the Americans beat them to it by 2 weeks in a place called Kitty Hawk.
The Kitty Hawk plane in WW2 were named after that place.
Well, my husband just told me about that, I knew about the Wright brothers.
Thank you so much Pamela for the interesting info. I didn’t know that.
I call that a perfect blue sky
You’re right, it’s really completely blue skies. Very rarely do I see such a sky.
not even a hint of a cloud
That’s a nice shot of the plane.
Thank you very much, Alex
I have flown and liked it! Beautiful photo!
Thank you. I’ve also flown a couple of times
I have flown and not afraid to fly. Beautiful photo!
Thank you, Carol. I’m not afraid of flying, either.
A beautiful blue sky. I fly often but I am only afraid of the turbulence
I don’t fly often, I travel by car anymore
I have flown in everything from Helicopters, private planes, and commercial jets. I thought about taking flying lessons at one time but decided that wasn’t something that I had time for.
I think you’re flown more than any of us here, You are like a world traveler ?
just means I was away from home a lot!
I have been in and out of several planes while taking foreign tours.
I flew the plane a couple of times
