... especially when the day was as perfect as today!
After the rubbish weather of the past few days, today was one of those perfect autumn days that make you glad that you booked an aircraft :-). Today I took up Cessna 172N ZK-FLT to the southern Wairarapa area for a bit of revision/ practice flying. This consisted of some climbing turns, stalls, a simulated FLWOP [Forced Landing With Out Power] and a healthy dose of low flying in our expansive low flying area.
There was hardly a breath of wind, and absolutely no traffic delays - I called ready to line up and was cleared onto the runway straight away. Coming back was similar with no delay. All in all, a fantastic hour in the air.
Pictures are of Cessna 172N ZK-FLT [this was another flight today] and Cirrus SR22, ZK-YUG.
