From the Dells...

Hello ... from the Wisconsin Dells - on my honeymoon! Yeah, that's right... got married last Saturday (June 9th) to Amber. It all went very well... and we're enjoying some (much) needed time off. Check out the picture...

Other than that, we are just getting settled. This is the first week I've been off from flying in quite a while, so I'm starting to get the shakes a little. I miss it, but it's not bad to take a little break. I will be ready to go as SOON as we're back, though! Bring it on. :D

Clear skies,
kc (& amber)

Backbone - May 25, 2007

Hello! A trip to Backbone and some pictures to share tonight. Check it out.

Enjoy!

Because I want to...

Wow - it's been a busy couple of days and I doubt it's going to get any better. Everything from business to flying to weddings. It's all good, though. We'll tackle it one way or the other.

I'm pretty happy staying local and flight instructing. I really enjoy the thrill of teaching people a new skill and sharing what I love with other people every single day. I like to think that my passion for it shines through with each and every lesson.

At any rate... plugging away. The weather has been terrible lately, so I've just been hanging out and getting some extra work done that I've been putting off. That's been OK, but hey... let's go fly!

Hey bloggers - welcome to Friday! Here's a small tip for ya...

If you forget your checklist in the airplane, or can't find it, try this acronym for your pre-takeoff check:

• C - Controls (free and clear)
  
• I - Instruments (heading indicator, attitude indicator, altimeter, etc.)
  
• G - Gas (correct tank, fuel pumps, etc.)
  
• A - Airplane (general.. seat belts, doors, etc.)
  
• R - Run-up (magneto checks, engine instruments, etc.)
  

Many of you may already use it, but for those of you who don't... there you go. Free stuff.
