The plane was not set up with cameras, unfortunately. I got a couple pics of before and after, but nothing from up in the air . . was too busy to take pics myself.
You are welcome. I hope you got your stomach back Was the drive worth it?
Stomach took about an hour to get back where it should be, and as far as the drive . . . I have driven 700 miles for less pleasurable experiences, so no question about it.
The amazing thing about flying small planes like that, is that they are actually really slow (my first time I had doubts that it could get/remain airborne), and they shake like hell (plus there is not much space inside, so if you are claustrophobic, fuggetaboutit).
It's basically like driving an old truck...but in the air instead of on a bumpy dirt road. Still, it's quite a rush...
That much of been a great time, but flying scares the living crap out of me. everytime i have to go somewhere, i need to take something to calm me down or ill freak out the entire way
however, i do want to learn how to fly, i think that will ease my nerves.

The only time it was rough was when we would do maneuvers that placed the plane in its own wake.
crazy... something ive kinda wanted to do one time or another in my time...
do you have to have some sort of past flying history or license to do this?
No, it's really easy to control a small plane, few mins basics while flying, "demo" and you are done, of course, that's just flying, not talking about not so easy.

Once you figure out the peddle and stick combinations it is pretty easy to keep it level, it is the dives, spins, rolls, loops, hammerheads, etc that take a little more concentration.
I have to admit, my body feels like I actually did some work yesterday . . . other than the 700 miles of driving.
ps: Good Girl, that's not the way to get rid of a biz partner Just kidding babe, hell of a gift.
I didn't think it was....my dad seem to think I was trying to get rid of him, death by stunt plane?? But my dad would never get on a plane....something about liking his feet on the ground....
Did a little of that kind of flying when I was a kid. 19 actually. Not a lot. but I had a friend that was licensed. and we would fly all the time. I have about 800 hours right seat.

This two seater was front and rear, with me in the front. As you can see, the plane was quite small, so it really made it intense when spinning towards the ground.
I really wish it was set up with cameras, I would love to show how nuts it was at times.
